It might actually be intentional and not a third-party-api-consumer-bug or user error to import VLAN-ID 4095, since you want to be able to assign 4095 to Interfaces in VMWare, see: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-vSphere/7.0/com.vmware.vsphere.networking.doc/GUID-7225A28C-DAAB-4E90-AE8C-795A755FBE27.html

Yes it is intentional that you can't create vlanid 4095 see https://github.com/netbox-community/netbox/issues/3425
But the description states 1-4095 instead of 1-4094 that's why i tried to import it.
Also Extreme Networks uses vlanid 4095 for their out of band management port. It's fully functional with its own vrf an you can assign prefixes to this vid.
