I had something similar when I used XMBC (I think it's called kody now) and it seems it was because there was some confusion with the scrapper to imdb and it needed some manual override file. You had to create a .nfo file or something like that, that told the scrapper the right imdb number or other exact identifier for it. I wouldn't be surprised if the people at plex have some way to know of all the custom fixes people do and with that, when you have some issue recognizing some content, they can figure out what most people do.

I would be surprised if jellyfin has any way to to know what the users are doing so that wouldn't work

That's not what this was though, because it eventually fixed itself. I couldn't begin to diagnose the bug, but the way I have my stuff organized works in jellyfin, but something about it's scanner and/or database seems to have issues.
