It's not your fault. For now, try to ignore the "problem".

Check this existing bug report first, may be relevant, I only had a cursory glance though.

Too late. I already reported as Bug 1192312. However, I can flag that as a duplicate.

Product update actually updates openSUSE-release package. The openSUSE-release in main repository defines product version 15.3-2, while openSUSE-release packages in update repositories define product version 15.3-1. So zypper sees "newer" product version, but because openSUSE-release package version in main repository is lower, it will not install it.

Code:

bor@leap15:~> zypper se -sx openSUSE-release
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...


S  | Name             | Type       | Version          | Arch   | Repository
---+------------------+------------+------------------+--------+-----------------------
i+ | openSUSE-release | package    | 15.3-lp153.149.1 | x86_64 | Main Update Repository
v  | openSUSE-release | package    | 15.3-lp153.146.1 | x86_64 | Main Update Repository
v  | openSUSE-release | package    | 15.3-lp153.143.2 | x86_64 | Main Update Repository
v  | openSUSE-release | package    | 15.3-lp153.143.1 | x86_64 | Main Update Repository
v  | openSUSE-release | package    | 15.3-lp153.16.2  | x86_64 | Main Repository (OSS)
bor@leap15:~> rpm -q --provides openSUSE-release | grep 'product(Leap)'
product(Leap) = 15.3-1
bor@leap15:~>

And if you look at package in Main Repository (OSS), it provides product(Leap) = 15.3-2

Code:

bor@leap15:~> sudo zypper --no-refresh -vvv up

...
The following product update will NOT be installed:
  openSUSE Leap 15.3  15.3-2  x86_64  Main Repository (OSS)  openSUSE
Nothing to do.
