This seems to be a multilevel bug. Something triggered a state, but not the bug itself, and then something else happened once the system was in that state that triggers the bug. I say this because I've now regressed to a snapshot from 2 weeks ago, and dnf updated and it's updated fine with no scriplet errors. And subsequent package updates previously giving me such errors, no longer produce errors.

Maybe there was a failed dnf update a couple days ago, because I remember seeing a pile of SKIPPED messages because they were already downloaded, and then in the middle of trying to download more, dnf puked saying it couldn't find any mirrors. That was resolved with the hammer approach, dnf clean all, and somehow it ended up with a better mirror list and was able to complete downloads, but I think maybe it did duplicate installs of some things.
