I notice that 'man 8 lvm' on buster says:
"""
Links or nodes in /dev/mapper are intended only for internal use and
the precise format and escaping might change between releases and
distributions. Other software and scripts should use the
/dev/VolumeGroupName/LogicalVolumeName format to reduce the chance of
needing amendment when the software is updated.
