It appears to be a bug, but it would be good to figure out why it's
happening, so that it can be fixed. I can't tell from your description
if only moving the files, without changing the existing tagging, was
enough to make it correct.

In my experience, using COMPILATION=0 can cause odd things with the
artist roles. It shouldn't, but it sometimes does.

No, not unless the file's size or the modified time. Typically, when you
add or remove metadata, there's some unused space in the tag that is
simply expanded or contracted to accommodate the changes. If you're
preserving the mod time in your tagging software, then LMS won't think
the files have changed. I run a little program that adds 2 seconds to
the file mod times any time I do edits.
