It seems that it's really important to generate the keystore with a very particular version of the keytool executable. On my Windows machine, a search for keytool.exe yielded lots of results:

c:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre\bin\keytool.exe

c:\Program Files\Eclipse Foundation\jdk-8.0.302.8-hotspot\bin\keytool.exe

c:\Program Files\Eclipse Foundation\jdk-8.0.302.8-hotspot\jre\bin\keytool.exe

c:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_301\bin\keytool.exe

c:\ProgramData\Sony Mobile\Update Engine\{5152617D-088D-4700-97C9-A2696A37E999}\jre\bin\keytool.exe

c:\Users\All Users\Sony Mobile\Update Engine\{5152617D-088D-4700-97C9-A2696A37E999}\jre\bin\keytool.exe

For my React Native application, I initially created the keystore with c:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre1.8.0_301\bin\keytool.exe assuming that this would the be most authorative Java installation, and got the "Invalid keystore format" error.

The solution was to go with c:\Program Files\Android\Android Studio\jre\bin\keytool.exe. The rationale behind this would be to use the same Java installation as the build engine (in my case - gradlew bundleRelease).
