Broken EA feature:The Newest Patch and Seasons Plant Changes

I was wondering if I'm the only one who is seeing this.

The Sims 4 Seasons was monumental for the series aesthetically for adding changes to non-tree plants so they turned brown for the late autumn and winter, making it more realistic. With the newest patch, this has stopped working in my game. Or moreover as you can see in the below screenshot, some of the plants (the grasses) still change, whereas the shrubs no longer do:

I thought for sure some mod was causing conflicts (I have created some mods for myself that make some of the world object plants and others change, after all), but when I removed all mods, the problem remained. D:

I may be the only person on earth who even cares about this. However, I'd like to know if others are experiencing this?
