According to seirl on IRC, this issue is trigged when a Python application is run by systemd using DynamicUser=yes:

"DynamicUser: Takes a boolean parameter. If set, a UNIX user and group pair is allocated dynamically when the unit is started, and released as soon as it is stopped. The user and group will not be added to /etc/passwd or /etc/group, but are managed transiently during runtime. (...)"
