Description
I'm trying to shrink an SVG file, but instead of a slightly smaller file, I get one that's functionally empty:
Lossy minification is disabled and I've set the optimization level to Fast to be extra sure.
Here's the original file (zipped because GitHub doesn't do SVG files):
sheet.svg.zip

Research direction
Start by reproducing the report with the attached sheet.svg.zip, lossy minification disabled, and optimization level set to Fast. Compare the generated SVG with the original and investigate which optimization step removes its content; done means the optimized file remains functionally non-empty while still being reduced.
