Default lvm behaviour seems to be to wipe signatures:
    # Set to 1 to wipe any signatures found on newly-created Logical Volumes
    # automatically in addition to zeroing of the first KB on the LV
    # (controlled by the -Z/--zero y option).
    # The command line option -W/--wipesignatures takes precedence over this
    # setting.
    # The default is to wipe signatures when zeroing.
    #
    wipe_signatures_when_zeroing_new_lvs = 1

So it seems to be a command line option in proxmox to not to wipe found
signatures. Any reason for this decision?
