I find it a lot easier to memorize content with an “Everything on Back” approach, but I have encountered the problem you’re talking about. Usually, if this starts happening though I go back and merge the cards I’m having issues with. So you can kind of have both approaches at once, if you’re willing to edit your deck aggressively.
I think this is really common, even if you are not using the “Everything on Back” approach. If I had to give it a name, I would go with “interference”, which seems to be the name from 20 Rules. This is not an endorsement of the 20 rules.
I previously used Obsidian with an Anki plugin for syncing to Anki one way (this also allowed card updates from Obsidian to Anki, but not the other way–hence one way). The upkeep became too heavy. I have since been trying to keep upkeep to a minimum.
I will update a bit however, since more people have now mentioned the same thing. Perhaps I am just doing something wrong. Thanks for sharing:)
