A collaborative group is a _group Record in someone's personal stack whose stackUrl points at the group's own stack (identity.md § Group). Inside that group stack, the only role core knows is the owner, _config.entityId. Nothing records who the stack's members and admins are:
A roster inside the group stack would be one more _group Record, indistinguishable from any other list kept there.
So one group has two rosters, one in the founder's personal stack and one in its own, with nothing keeping them in step. Core doesn't resolve a roster across stacks (access-control.md § Known limitation).
"Admin of the stack" therefore means "holds the key". The roster's admin role and the owner's authority are different things, and only the first is written down.
Direction
_config names one _group Record in the stack as the stack's own roster:
That roster is authoritative. The group owns its own membership; a _group with a stackUrl in a personal stack is a pointer to it.
Its admins manage membership without holding owner authority, which makes the split between key holders and administrators visible.
The other _group Records in a stack stay the owner's own lists, with today's rules.
