To answer myself for the sake of others in similar situation:
My assumption was right, I did an upgrade to 20200428, my config boots without
problem.
Plymouth is showing the three dots while decrypting the drives but is not
screwing the boot process.

Why on earth is plymouth being used on TW - a (b)leading edge rolling release
where probably most users want to see the diagnostics at boot and push the ESC
key anyhow???
