I’ve seen it happen too, you’re not hallucinating indeed.
So I don’t think this summary is incorrect. Although I indeed think people may also complain about the max brightness and confuse the performance with indoor lighting. This was a topic last year as well. But let’s see and wait.
There is also another issue with the light/proximity sensor.
It doesn’t look like things are improving on that regard either. Maybe things will be better with the FP5.
