Enhanced Kleptomaniac Reward Trait from Sticky Fingers Aspiration has Bugs

The Sticky Fingers aspiration rewards a Sim with the Reward Trait Enhanced Kleptomaniac upon completion. But I noticed something with my current Sim.

The Sim had just three Personality Traits because they hadn't yet gained any Self-Discovery Traits. When the Sim completed the Sticky Fingers aspiriation, Enhanced Kleptomaniac was added as a fourth Personality Trait rather than as a Reward Trait. This meant that the Sim was now only able to get two Self-Discovery Traits instead of three due to the hard limit of six Personality Traits. As a test I tried added more Personality traits and sure enough, because of Enhanced Kleptomaniac they were only able to gain two more Personality Traits.

So, I went back to an earlier save from before the Sim had completed the Sticky Fingers Aspiration. This time I made the Sim gain their three Self-Discovery Personality Traits first. Now that they had their full six Personality Traits (the three starting Personality Traits and three Self-Discovery Personality Traits), I completed the Sticky Fingers aspiration. However, I discovered that the Enhanced Kleptomaniac Trait did not appear under the list of their Reward Traits. The Sim still seems to have the Trait, as if I click certain objects that don't belong to the Sim, they do have the option to attempt to swipe the object, but the Enhanced Personality Trait is not shown anywhere on the Simology tab.

In summary, it seems if a Sim has less than six Personality traits, the Enhanced Kleptomaniac trait from the Sticky Fingers aspiration will be gained as a Personality trait rather than a Reward trait and will take up a slot of one of the Sim's Personality traits. If the Sim already has six Personality traits, the Enhanced Kleptomaniac trait seems like it is gained but it won't be shown anywhere on the Simology panel.

I only have one other Sim who has completed the Sticky Fingers aspiration, and they are in another save and had done the Aspiration a while ago, and when I checked I noticed that that Sim too didn't show the Enhanced Kleptomaniac Trait on their Simology panel because they already had six Personality Traits when they did the aspiration, but they still had the option to Attempt to Swipe when clicking on an object that wasn't theirs.
