Maps are evaluated when you access resulting variable, so it is
expected that the map result will be empty if there are no
$sent_http_container_id during map evaluation, that is, at
logging. Overall, your construct is no different from using
$sent_http_container_id in the log format directly.

As far as I understand what you are trying to do, proper solution
would be to void both 3rd-party more_clear_headers and map, and
instead use proxy_hide_header[1] to hide the header, and use the
$upstream_http_container_id[2] variable for logging the original
upstream response header. Something like this:

log_format formatjson escape=json '{
'"tomcat_container_id": "$upstream_http_container_id" }';
proxy_hide_header Container-Id;

Hope this helps.
