Please show your /etc/group.

That doesn't sound good to me that /etc/group should be rewritten willy nilly.  Not sure about putting /etc/group in public.

Before systemd-sys users was created, RPMs often added groups during install or updates.  Not a huge surprise.

The pertinent section seems to be

clevis:x:997:
input:x:996:root:rm3
kvm:x:36:qemu,root
render:x:995:
systemd-journal:x:190:
systemd-coredump:x:994:
systemd-network:x:192:
systemd-resolve:x:193:
dbus:x:81:

It looks like you broke your input group by having five items in that entry, there should be four.  The last part of the colon-delimited entry is a username list, using a comma, not another colon. Look at how the kvm group was done.
