I recently hit something similar on Silverblue. I installed Silverblue when F28 was available and installing flatpaks without the --user flag.
I'm pretty sure the default is --user since before Fedora 28. Very
early on the default was --system.
This is strange, I installed most of my flatpaks through GNOME Software
and all of them are in
/sysroot/ostree/deploy/fedora-workstation/var/lib/flatpak, which I
suppose looks like --system flag.
OK, lovely, so I'm confused. On my cleanly installed Fedora 31
Workstation system, I'm seeing what you're seeing. Flatpaks installed
via GNOME Software are in /var/lib/flatpak which is consistent with
flatpak --system installation.

So it would seem, GNOME Software defaults to --system, whereas the
flatpak CLI defaults to --user.

Honestly, I'm not sure, it was few years ago. It is possible that I did
some manual partitioning.
You can post /etc/fstab or show the output from df and it should be
enough info to figure out what the layout is.
Here is my output from df -h:

Filesystem               Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
devtmpfs                 3.8G     0  3.8G   0% /dev
tmpfs                    3.9G     0  3.9G   0% /dev/shm
tmpfs                    3.9G  2.1M  3.9G   1% /run
/dev/mapper/fedora-root   49G   42G  4.8G  90% /sysroot
tmpfs                    3.9G   28K  3.9G   1% /tmp
/dev/nvme0n1p2           976M  140M  770M  16% /boot
/dev/nvme0n1p1           200M  7.9M  192M   4% /boot/efi
/dev/mapper/fedora-home  176G   79G   88G  48% /var/home
tmpfs                    784M  224K  784M   1% /run/user/1000

I agree, the --system should be default, because most users expect that
application is available to every user on the machine.
Right. But that must be contingent on /var having enough space so
users aren't stuck fighting free space issues between /home and /.
