If you have more ideas or suggestions, please share them with me.

Perhaps some of the strings contain leading or trailing returns - so you're not collecting empty values, but when you put them all in a list you end up with some blank lines.

So yet another variation might collect this information

             put the uMyLabel of button n of card y of stack "MyStack" into 
tName
             if tName contains cr then
               put y && n & cr after theList
             end if
   -- temporarily suppress normal data collection

   --     put tName & cr after theList

... or if you just want to suppress it from your output, and don't care where it is, replace

   put tName & cr after theList

with
   put line 1 of tName & cr after theList
