[OPEN] [DHD] Unlinking any Modular Furniture causes LE and unexpected behaviour

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? 1.101.290.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except Horse Ranch.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves?
- Place any piece of modular furniture that can be linked to another piece (E.g. "The Acute Double Drawer Shelf by Be Modular");
- Place a second piece attached to the first one so that they they link;
- Click and move the second piece to break the link and place it anywhere detached from the first one.

What happens when the bug occurs? Upon letting go of the mouse button, the object snaps back to its previous position and a last exception is generated. Trying to move the object again might work, but there will be invisible "phantom objects" left behind. Moving the objects around a bit and back to their original position gives the "can't intersect other objects" message on what is visually an empty location.
What do you expect to see? The ability to move furniture around without generating exceptions or phantom objects.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. This started happening after the latest patch as of writing (the Chef Hustle update).

I have gone as far as doing a Folder Refresh (deleting the entirety of my Sims folder within my Documents folder), repairing the game, and creating a new world save. The problem can be consistently recreated in a fully vanilla setup.

Possibly related to this report? I have been having this issue as well and they started appearing at the same time. It can be just as consistently recreated in the same environment.
