Your two reasons seem legitimate.

Though you say you do not frequently do DELETE and so it shouldn't be due
to tombstones, there are semi-recent versions of Cassandra which create a
runaway avalanche of tombstones that double every time they are compacted.
What version are you running?

Also, is there some reason you are not just dumping the table with
sstable2json and inspecting the contents of the row in question?
