We're at 9.8P1. I'll dig into the below link.

I’d actually recommend 9.8 and proactive resizing instead.
Elastic sizing is reactive and incurs a latency penalty when used. And it can’t be used with vol autosize.
Proactive resizing starts resizing when we get to 60% used and maintains a relatively even free space buffer and can be used with autosize.

I believe this might help:
Elastic sizing was introduced in Ontap 9.6. This article details the issue:

This should be turned on by default but can be turned off via:
node run nodename flexgroup set elastic-sizing=false

OK, resizing the flexgroup added some space to the constituent volume (to all of them, actually) and now it has free space. But a look at the eight CVs in the FG shows they range from 22% to 68% full. Is something keeping them more or less balanced? If so, how did it fail? And if not, what the hell?
