Ok, I can summarize what is happening here.  When a card that contains a
background with shared text disabled on a field, the data is indeed
retained.  The extra data survives saves and "compact this stack" as long
as the shared group remains on any card.  If you remove the group from the
last card and then do a compact, then all of the extra space is recovered.
When you place the group back on a card, the fields are now empty.

As implied by the documentation, if you remove the group from the last card
and do a save from the menu, the space is also reclaimed.

Impressive sleuthing, Brian.  Well done!
