I think this might be a manifestation of this behavior - [Bug report: Newlines duplicated within fields - #6 by dae](https://forums.ankiweb.net/t/bug-report-newlines-duplicated-within-fields/40884/6) . You have all that “invisible” header information in your field (as opposed to your template), so if you edit the note in AnkiDroid, it is re-parsing the newlines as linebreaks `<br>`.

Possible solutions for the time-being –

- Don’t edit notes with complex HTML in AnkiDroid
- Settings \> Advanced \> Workarounds \> Replace newlines \> toggle off
