Obviously you're using Mp3tag, but you're making the same mistake as
when you tried to use ARTISTSORTORDER.  These are Mp3tag's _internal_
field names.  They map to ID3v2 frames for MP3 files, but they do NOT
map to anything in FLAC files.  You're getting a literal
ITUNESCOMPILATION field in your FLAC tags, not the desired COMPILATION
field.  (In Mp3tag open the Help, then go to "Names and mapping of
ID3v2/WMA/MP4 tag fields".  You'll see the mapped field names, but note
that they're only for ID3 and WMA.  For FLAC files, use the actual field
names.)

No, that's not how it works at all.  If you exclude an ARTISTSORT field
then SqueezeCenter should simply use the value in the ARTIST field for
sorting.  Needless to say, for 'Abba', an ARTISTSORT containing 'Abba'
should have no net effect.

The scanner will remove old data if your run a 'clear library' type
rescan.

I don't think you're seeing the results of any bugs.  Are you running
SC 7.3 or SC 7.4?  SC 7.4 does have some scanning bugs, but it scans my
library, tagged as I've been describing, with zero errors.
