Is there some rule that determines whether, when a field or group is
copied in LiveCode (using the "copy <object> to <somewhere>" command)
the contents of the field or grouped fields are copied?

This result seems strange:  copying a field or group from a different
stack to the current card includes the field contents if the current
card is card number 1, but not otherwise.

I think that is due to the sharedtext property. Try toggling it and see if results change. Shared text doesn't really exist on every card, the content is only stored once, and you may have to be on that card to retrieve it.
