This is not a bug but the intended behavior.
This was part of the functional requirements when we redesigned of the /contribute page. The new design introduced discrete functional areas for contributors and each functional area assigned a group to each contributor instead of the single trusted contributors group. The new groups have or at least should have the same access levels with the old one. When a gets at least one of the new groups, we remove the old group as a way to gratefully migrate everyone to the new group schema.
