I agree that reducing the bloat of JSON-LD is a noble goal. Sorry to belabor this point, but can you explain why JSON-LD is needed in the first place? I've tried to point out that HTML is capable of doing it without another spec, which obviates the need for content duplication and bloat that

When too much is displayed, the website is too busy. If there are 12 audios in a group, the person can only listen to one at a time so it is pointless to have 12 audio nodes present. But you can display one and have the other 11 accessible via a select menu, so that if and when the user

I think one of the best aspects of the web platform is that there can be a single node in the network that is accessible to *all*. The linked data approach hides the information from humans. The structured data alternative you suggest (div display none) still hides the information from humans.
