Adobe Libraries and InDesign

Hello,

I created some swatches in InDesign color palette and then added them to Adobe Libraries. Some of these swatches are Pantone Spot Colors and they appear in the original palette in InDesign with the spot icon next to them. When I open InDesign and add these swatched from Adobe Library, they appear as LAB colors and the little spot icon is gone. Is this normal? What's the fix if not?

I'm not seeing that problem in InDesign 2021. What InDesign version and operating system for you?

 

Here's a file where I have a PANTONE 327 C which I'm adding to a CC Library. Notice that there two icons to the right of the name. The left one shows the color is a spot color, the right one shows it's using a LAB color definition.

When I add this spot color from the CC Library in a new file, I exactly the same two icons:
