Missing many objects from live edit and debug

So, I have been having an odd issue as of late. When trying to use debug and live edit mode, I am missing a lot of objects that should be there. Fake houses, trees, benches, anything really. What is really confusing is that some of it is there. But only for certain packs, and even with those one, I am missing a lot.

I have turned off mods to see if that is what is causing issues, but it's the same. I have repaired my game, but nothing has seemed to have been fixed.

For context to get a better idea, I have 15 packs (excluding kits) And in the outdoors plants category, I only have access to 5 debug, and 6 live edit, all from Stangerville.

If anyone knows why this is happening, if it has happened to anyone else, or if there is a solution, please do let me know.

Thank you for your time.

I wonder if BBB or some other Mod is interfering with it. Can you move or rename the Sims 4 folder and then load the game, a new one will be created with none of your saves, mods etc in it. Start a new save go through CAS, load a Lot and then enter the cheats to bring up the items.

So I have done as you said, and it seems live edit isn't working when I put in the cheat. However, even with showhiddenobjects working, I am only getting Strangerville and no other pack (including base game)'s hidden objects.
EDIT: So, I AM getting liveedit, as well as other pack content, but it isn't showing up in the categories like they usually do. I can only access them in via going to Objects by Function and looking up debug. Still missing a lot, but it's more than what I was getting before. I am unsure why this is the case, but it does seem to be there. Just Strangerville seems to be the only one in "build" and "objects by room".
It is very likely I am being a little stupid, as I've never used live edit with out Better Build Buy, which could be why I'm confused. If that is the case, I am terribly sorry for the waste of time.

Are you sure you have bb.showliveeditobjects enabled?

With just bb.showhiddenobjects enabled I get this in the outdoor trees/plants/flowers/rocks category:

If I then enable bb.showliveeditobjects and load the entire Strangerville catalogue these plants, among others, show up in addition to the hidden debug objects above:

Could you do the same test and show screenshots of your results?
