I am looking at the iwmon logs for a successful wpa_supplicant

wpa_supplicant knows it is dynamic
wpa_supplicant doesn't manage network interfaces. I assume you're using ConnMan
for this? If so, ConnMan sets the IFF_DYNAMIC flag. See
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/network/connman/connman.git/tree/src/inet.c#n372
Whereas the iwd log does not:
iwd doesn't use IFF_DYNAMIC in its DHCP implementation at the moment.
According to 'man netdevice':
IFF_DYNAMIC The addresses are lost when the interface
goes down.
I doubt this is the cause of your DHCP / connection problems.
