I‘m no expert here nor extremely strong opiniated. My thoughts though: if theres no exact equivalent, why try to re-implement the recent functionality with nftables at „all“ cost?

With nftables, this should in principle be possible with nested variables, and the firewall groups are based on these now.

My production config created no errors when loading the config after the update.

I just realize it's getting more complicated as python/vyos/firewall.py will later write out the rules for these empty groups and when reading-them in, nftables will complain (again) when trying to resolve them, e.g.
To my understanding, the template data/templates/firewall/nftables.tmpl is probably the culprit, as it doesn't check whether group_conf.address (and similarly the others) has any elements at all and introduces the offending white-space:
