[ARCHIVED] [TUTORIAL] Unable to complete tutorial because of locked actions

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.62.67.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? GTW, GT, CL, CD, Seasons, GF, IL, DU. OR, SD, DO, V, PH, JA, SV, RM. PP, CK, Spooky, MH, RG, KR, VG, BN, Fitness, Toddler, LD, Moschino
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play the tutorial. Complete your career's Daily Task on Sunday and Monday to get promoted on Tuesday. Complete the other objectives of milestone 3 before going to work on Wednesday.
What happens when the bug occurs? The actions needed to complete milestone 4 are grayed out. The tooltip says "disabled by tutorial." This prevents you from completing the next step of the tutorial.
What do you expect to see? I expect actions to become available when they are required.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Installed the patch for Nov 13, 2018, which included the new tutorial.

I previously reported this problem on Nov 16, 2018. It was originally reported by @luftsaob on Nov 15, 2018. @crinrict asked me to start a new thread. The original report has been erroneously marked as fixed. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/FIXED-Unable-to-Progress-in-new-tutorial-due-to-greyed-out/td-p/7169467

The problem occurs when you complete milestone 3 of the tutorial before reaching the step that says, "You now have Free Play time until you complete all of your Sim's Aspiration goals. Check your progress in the Aspirations panel. And remember to take care of their needs, but most importantly...have fun!"

At this point in the tutorial, the phone is still disabled, travel is not permitted, and fishing is still disabled. These things will only unlock after the tutorial progresses, which only happens after you have completed "all of your Aspiration goals." However, it isn't possible to complete all the goals of milestone 4 until these things have been unlocked because milestone 4 requires you to take a vacation day (requires the phone), visit a community lot (requires the phone and travel), and fish for one hour (requires fishing).
