This could happen after the card was generated but then you made a change that caused it to be considered empty (like adding conditionals). Anki doesn’t remove the card automatically in this case.
Use Tools > Empty cards to remove it.

See https://docs.ankiweb.net/#/templates/generation?id=card-generation-amp-deletion

What’s the advantage of making the user do this manually instead of automatically deleting a card if its FrontSide is empty and generating it again if there’s content on the FrontSide again?

You could unintentionally make a card empty by editing fields and templates. Removing the card automatically will leave you with no indication of what just happened (except maybe if Anki shows a pop-up or something). It will also result in loss of scheduling information.
