Agreed. I can reproduce this with the same html (`<div><b><i></i></b></div>`) in

1. Anki 24.11 (87ccd24e) (ao)  
Python 3.9.18 Qt 6.6.2 PyQt 6.6.1  
Platform: Linux-6.1.0-0.deb11.21-amd64-x86\_64-with-glibc2.31
2. Anki 25.02 (038d85b1) (ao)  
Python 3.9.18 Qt 6.6.2 PyQt 6.6.1  
Platform: Linux-6.12.19-amd64-x86\_64-with-glibc2.41
3. Anki 25.02 (8fc822a6) (src) (ao)  
Python 3.9.18 Qt 6.6.2 PyQt 6.6.1  
Platform: Linux-6.12.19-amd64-x86\_64-with-glibc2.41  
(latest _main_ build from source today)

**Edit:** I opened a report in [Having empty HTML in the add cards fields causes the field to shrink and be unusable](https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/having-empty-html-in-the-add-cards-fields-causes-the-field-to-shrink-and-be-unusable/58955).
