The $field and $field_name always need to be created regardless if $field_name is array.

  if (is_array($field_name)) {
    $instance = $field_name;
    $field = empty($field_name['field']) ? field_info_field($instance['field_name']) : $field_name['field'];
    $field_name = $instance['field_name'];
  }
  else {
    list(, , $bundle) = entity_extract_ids($entity_type, $entity);
    $instance = field_info_instance($entity_type, $field_name, $bundle);
  }

The 5 year old patch to fields.inc applied cleanly to the latest ctools 7.x-1.x-dev, but still needs to be officially reviewed and tested by the community (if still applicable).

Checking patch includes/fields.inc...
Hunk #1 succeeded at 238 (offset 14 lines).
Hunk #2 succeeded at 248 (offset 14 lines).
Applied patch includes/fields.inc cleanly.

Thanks for your patience @droath, I'm quite confident the patch is a great way to normalize and get the same expected results, it's committed to the dev branch.

Any reason why the commit (and release) contains the following change? The change was not in patch #2...

https://git.drupalcode.org/project/ctools/commit/87d82c6

- function ctools_process(&$variables, $hook) {

Thanks for spotting that, I really don't know where that came from... I scan the diff a few times before committing.🤷‍♂️

I'm trying figure out why the empty($field_name['field']) condition was stripped out when the line was moved down below?

Best I can tell, a module I've installed (og_vocab) was using ctools_field_invoke_field to invoke a dummy field, but with out this condition that dummy field is totally ignored.
