Incompatibility when use python3-nftables and iptables-nft

[Wayne Bao <herecomeswaynebao0811@xxxxxxxxx>]

I am using python3-nftables
(https://github.com/ansibleguy/python3-nftables) to programatically
update rules, and at the same time using iptables-nft from commandline
to manage rules. I see incompatibility when I use these two together:

1. If I add a rule using iptables:
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 443 -s 1.2.3.4 -i eth1 -j ACCEPT

then python3-nftables "list ruleset" does not show dport 443:
{'rule': {'family': 'ip', 'table': 'filter', 'chain': 'INPUT',
'handle': 4, 'expr': [{'match': {'op': '==', 'left': {'meta': {'key':
'iifname'}}, 'right': 'eth1'}}, {'match': {'op': '==', 'left':
{'meta': {'key': 'l4proto'}}, 'right': 'tcp'}}, {'match': {'op': '==',
'left': {'payload': {'protocol': 'ip', 'field': 'saddr'}}, 'right':
'1.2.3.4'}}, {'xt': None}, {'counter': {'packets': 0, 'bytes': 0}},
{'accept': None}]}}

2. If I add a rule using python3-nftables while the filter table and
INPUT chain exists:
{"nftables": [{"add": {"rule": {
                    "family": "ip",
                    "table": "filter",
                    "chain": "INPUT",
                    "expr": [
                        {
                            "match": {
                                "op": "==",
                                "left": {"meta": {"key": "iifname"}},
                                "right": "eth1",
                            }
                        },
                        {
                            "match": {
                                "op": "==",
                                "left": {
                                    "payload": {"protocol": "tcp",
"field": "dport"}
                                },
                                "right": 443,
                            }
                        },
                        {
                            "match": {
                                "op": "==",
                                "left": {
                                    "payload": {"protocol": "ip",
"field": "saddr"}
                                },
                                "right": "1.2.3.4",
                            }
                        },
                        {"counter": {"packets": 0, "bytes": 0}},
                        {"accept": None},
                    ]}}}]}

then "iptables -nL" does not show dport 443:
iptables -nL
------
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination
ACCEPT     tcp  --  1.2.3.4              0.0.0.0/0

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Is this a bug when using python3-nftables and iptables-nft?

I am running on a RHEL8 docker instance and my python3-nftables and
iptables-nft version:
iptables --version
iptables v1.8.4 (nf_tables)

python3.11
ansibleguy-nftables       1.0.2
