[BY DESIGN] Wall Sculptures and Plants darkened in the Interior

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 expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Place some of the decorative wall sculptures, such as The Living Vase (from GT), Country Flowers (from GT), Decorative Corbel (base game), and Scrollwork Corbel (base game) on a wall outside. Set time of day to afternoon. Note brightness of objects. Create a room and place the same objects inside it. Add lighting (I covered the entire ceiling in the image below).
What happens when the bug occurs? The objects appear darker than they should in the interior, given how brightly lit it is.
What do you expect to see? The objects should not be darker in a well lit interior than they are outdoors.
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? No

Here is an image of the objects brightness on an exterior wall:

Here are the same objects in a brightly lit interior room:

Note that the Crabtree Planter Pot is also pictured (vase with flowers) to show the contrast of an object that does *not* have the glitch.
