I think that the slash might be the rendering though? If you

    $ touch "foo:bar"
In the Terminal, then Finder renders it as foo/bar.

So who is lying, how is it stored in the directory entry in APFS itself?

APFS stores it as "foo:bar". (I don't think the filesystem itself cares what's in a name.)
