While this did solve it, I wonder why it was working in F31, but stopped

You installed "network-scripts" and that made it work?  That package is
deprecated and going away soon.  You should make sure it works without that.

Well, that's just more confusing as it turns out.. I configured this one with
the GUI in Anaconda, but this is where it put the connection info. The only
thing I've got in /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ is a VPN
configuration. I installed this system as F31 via KDE Spin's installer, if
that makes a difference.

Careful, I think you're confusing two things here.

There's the "network-scripts" package that contains some scripts for "ifup/down", etc. Those scripts shouldn't be used and are going away. They will give you a warning if you run them. NetworkManager provides it's own versions of "ifup/down" that are just wrappers for "nmcli".

Then there's the directory /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts that contains the ifcfg-* files. That is not going away and NetworkManager reads interface info from there. /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/ is kind of the native config for NetworkManager and at least VPNs get put there. Other distributions use that more, probably because ifcfg-* is a historical Redhat thing.

As far as I know, the installer doesn't create any network connection configs for the installed system. Those get created when you start it.
