I checked the dnf log and dnf is configured to select some

I preconfigure my system to get the two updaters to select the same
repo?
Pick a mirror for each of your enabled repositories, edit the files
under /etc/yum.repos.d, disable metalink and enable baseurl with your
preferred mirror.
P.S, just out of curiosity, why is the software updater not sharing
the
same dnf and yum metadata backend that clearly works better?
It does use the same backend. It keeps a separate copy of the metadata,
though. Never was sure why; I thought that's what packagekitd was *for*.
