Yes, these files are all loaded at run time, and not at format creating
time (unless you define your own format which pre-loads the font).

That should actually NOT be necessary. tlmgr is doing this for you,
it updates all the formats that needs rebuilding if some packages are
updated.
The only problem now is that you have format files in
~/.texlive2020/texmf-var
which means the system wide will NOT be used.
Best option for you is:
- move the fonts and related files to
~/.texlive2020/texmf-config/
or
~/texmf/
- remove
~/.texlive2020/texmf-var
After that there should be no need whatsoever to call
fmtutil(-sys/-user).
