I think you are stumbling upon systemd bug with unreasonably strict limitation 
of what characters could be part of a user or group name. This used to work 
fine for decades (literally, Samba/winbindd supports such names since around 
1998, SSSD since 2009) but then systemd developers decided to tighten up what 
they consider user/group names without really taking attention to the real 
world practices.

This is tracked in https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/15149 and was 
fixed in systemd with 
https://github.com/systemd/systemd/commit/7a8867abfab10e5bbca10590ec2aa40c5b27d8fb.
 I don't think there is any upstream release yet.

Please open a bug against systemd in Fedora 32 and reference that issue.

P.S. I'm not subscribed to the users@ list.
