Excellent isolation test. I tried the same sort of process on a separate
machine to no avail. I was not using NVME storage. I was using a brand
new Samsung SSD and you can see that listed in the output :

That machine simply worked as expected. Slight surprise but then again
no one else was seeing this issue.  Until Thomas Laus also caught it :

So we have at least two examples in the wild.

I will focus on the problem case I have and try to get better
information. Somehow.
