At the above absolute paths there are
indeed the indicated files with varying contents.

The second one (in texmf-local) is a left-over created by myself
years ago, its contents are comment out.

Its resolved path is printed but tlmgr conf also says

TEXMFLOCAL=/usr/local/texlive/2021/texmf-local

so I figured the path resolving is hard coded somewhere
and I can't change tlmgr conf output

Thanks, not sure what you mean by "which texmf.cnf file"
I try to describe above for the second one (left-over artefact
from old years, contents commented out), 

the first one is where I configure local changes suitable
to a Mac OS directory system

TEXMFLOCAL = $SELFAUTOPARENT/texmf-local
TEXMFHOME = ~/Library/texmf
TEXMFVAR = ~/Library/texlive/2021/texmf-var
TEXMFCONFIG = ~/Library/texlive/2021/texmf-config

as is advised in the comments.

And the 

 /usr/local/texlive/2020/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf

is the unmodified TeXLive one which starts with

% original texmf.cnf -- runtime path configuration file for kpathsea.
% Public domain.
% 
% If you modify this original file, YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST when it is
% updated.  Instead, put your changes -- and only your changes, not an
% entire copy! -- in ../../texmf.cnf.  That is, if this file is
% installed in /some/path/to/texlive/2021/texmf-dist/web2c/texmf.cnf,
% put your custom settings in /some/path/to/texlive/2021/texmf.cnf.
% (Below, we use YYYY in place of the specific year.)


Best,
