I don't think systemd has any concept of filesystems (volume formats).
It gets all of this from libblkid, udev, and the kernel. So I'd say
one of those three things is confused, and then confuses everything
else.

The fact you get a difference in output between lsblk and blkid is
itself a bug. I'd file it against libblkid and then include the bug
URL here.
