I've been in the situation where running a dnf check-upgrade has refreshed the two Fedora Updates repositories and then issued dnf upgrade immediately after and had it refresh the two updates repositories again.

Did you do both dnf commands with sudo?

If dnf check-update was not run under sudo then the metadata is
saved somewhere is you user’s $HOME.
Then when you run sudo dnf update it will not have access to the user’s copy of the meta data.
Yes, I believe they were both issued under sudo, but I'll double check that next time.
