I think any time you run a dnf command, the prepared update gets
invalidated. (That may be an oversimplification.) I don't think it
should be downloading unchanged packages again, though.

I think it's a GNOME Software bug that it says up to date when it's
not. I've complained about that for years. It will happily tell you
that your freshly-installed Fedora system is up to date months after
release, before the first update, often even after you manually check
for updates by pressing the Refresh button. :)
