@EA_Cade As I said, I have already tried a fresh install, as described above.

A fresh install is not the same as a clean game state.
You're seeing this with no mods or CC enabled, and after removing the Sims 4 folder as described?

@EA_Cade
I'm really not sure what you mean by saying "A fresh install is not a clean game state". I already tried that method. It makes a fresh install with factory settings. It was not retaining the original files which were kept in the original folder, having been renamed as instructed.
As I said in the report above, your question was already answered. I performed all combinations with and without mods and the errors are present.- EA_Solaire
In your original report, you mention fresh installing the game and updating your mods- we need to ensure this is not a mod-related issue, so we need to be sure that you have done a factory reset of your game and then fully tested this issue prior to adding any of your mods/CC back in.
Is this what you have tried, or did you fresh install, update your mods/CC and then test the game after the mods were added back in?
@EA_SolaireI confirmed it isn't mod related, and more particularly, the reaction with the mod I get when that is installed at any time specifically was with concern to game data issues it reads - both of which ends up affected in the original save and newly unmodded saves.
Without mods, the issues are still present. No part of the original save loaded in the state I expected when I had saved it, which is the same as if I were just using the original installation of the game. For new saves, I would have the same bugs with and without mods.
Again, I have tried every combination with and without mods and still seeing primarily the build item bug and quirkiness with my saves. I did not do just one pattern. I made several experiments over several combinations with and without mods, producing the same results.
