antid in antid-ea is not a compound of ante and id, but an old form of ante. The hyphenation should be an-tid-e-a.

It seems to me that an-ti-de-a would be more correct, as is already the case. Do you mean that the d is an epenthesis?

No, d is no epenthesis here. antid is an archaic form of ante (according to Stowasser, 1998). ea is the well known demonstrative pronoun (is/ea/id).
antidea is a synonym of antea, which I propose to hyphenate ant-e-a instead of an-te-a, because it derives from a shortened ante and the pronoun ea.
