AIUI, for bullseye, the answer lies in the first sentence matching 'debian' in man crypttab: "This manpage covers Debian's implementation for initramfs scripts and SysVinit init scripts." So the Debian options are not used by systemd, but it only promises a best-effort as to whether the rest of the options do apply to systemd. As it says: "if in doubt, better check the systemd crypttab(5) manpage, e.g. online at https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/crypttab.html." I don't know about bookwork: I only use crypttab for swap nowadays. Cheers, David.
