It seems I misunderstood your original report: you wanted Z on a .tgz
file to only uncompress it? That indeed has been changed in Emacs 26,
for consistency with a .tar.gz file. I don't think it's a good idea
to have the previous subtle difference back.
I do think that Z on a compressed Tar archive, be it a .tar.gz or .tgz
file, should not by default unpack the archive. We could have a
special prefix arg to request that, and by default we should just
uncompress the file. But that's a different issue.
