Summary
The first 3 members of struct bsddialog_menuitem are:

                   const char *prefix;
                   bool on;
                   unsigned int depth;

The newfs dialog options in bsdinstall's partition tool had on and depth
swapped, so the defaults did not work.

Separately this should probably just be -F 32 without -c 1. I will look at that and post a patch after testing.

Thank you for finding this issue and the fix.
