It makes no sense that this happens only in reverse.

None whatsoever, unless (and probably not even if) you are pushing the clutch in harder when you are in reverse.

Does the jam feel "mechanical" in nature?

Do these cars have an "over travel" or "return assist" type spring associated with pedal return? Even then the gear selection would not matter at all.
