Post-hoc merging offers a practical route to efficient VDR by reducing this cost without retraining the retriever, but its uniform reconstruction objectives are poorly aligned with the sparse, non-uniform patch usage induced by late-interaction retrieval. Under aggressive compression, this misalignment can preserve rarely used patches while concentrating retrieval activity on too few retained representatives. To address this misalignment, we propose Marginal-Guided Compression with Optimal Transport (MAGIC), a training-free post-hoc compressor for efficient retrieval with frozen multi-vector embeddings. MAGIC derives a MaxSim-induced compression surrogate and optimizes it through a two-marginal entropic optimal-transport formulation, where a retrieval-demand source marginal prioritizes high-use patches and a balanced target marginal regularizes retained-facet usage. Across ViDoRe benchmarks, keep ratios, and retrieval backbones, MAGIC consistently outperforms strong post-hoc compressors, with particularly large gains in the aggressive-compression regime; component ablations verify the complementary effects of its two marginals.
