Then it is not a true 1500 MTU link, something in-between drops packets at a
lower bar. Or maybe not all of them, but just UDP, for example.

But yeah, 1280 is worth trying as well, maybe Daniel has a similar issue.

As for me I am using MTU 1412 WG over IPv6 on a 1492 MTU underlying link just
fine.

It is able to, as long as the underlying link MTU is set to a correct value
(i.e. where largest-sized packets actually go through, and not get silently
dropped).
