The symptoms sound like the button(s) aren't really in a group, they are 
at the card level. Or alternately, there are copies of the group on 
different cards rather than a single group being placed on multiple 
cards. If either case is true, editing one will open a new editor tab 
(because it's a different object,) and deleting one won't delete it from 
other cards.
