SharePoint Team Site Default Permissions
Could someone please explain the default sharing permissions for the Owners and Members groups on the SharePoint Team Site? The Members group contains the O365 Group name, which makes sense. ...

I completely agree that we should leave both the Owners and Members groups alone. They should be managed via Site Permissions and not through Advanced Settings. But....we know that users will get curious and click on Advanced Settings. They'll open the Owners group, see that it's empty and then add their or others names. I've seen them do it.
So how can I properly explain to them that the empty Owners group is normal? :)
And for scenario I described, the permissions are correct in Advanced Settings but for some reason they are not displaying correctly in Site Permmissions.

Perhaps saying them that this is the way it works? :-))
About the issue you described, I think you should open a ticket, because that is not normal at all...
