Hmm... The From: in the body is the result of the `git format-patch` I believe.
So, two (or more?) possibilities here:
1) your configuration enforces it to always put From: (something new to me);
2) the submitter and author are not the same (see also:
https://github.com/git/git/commit/a90804752f6ab2b911882d47fafb6c2b78f447c3);
3) ...anything else...?

I believe I see it in the same way as lore, i.e.
