Often, the Light Source Epic (personal glow) gives awkward lighting depending on where you might be standing on a block as well as what the ambient light might be doing at the time.
Example: Backed up against a half block (behind) chiselled on the other side and a half block (to the right). There’s an opening to the outside world behind me to the left.
Pic #1: Working as expected, night time.
Pic #2: Full daytime, standing in the same spot.
Pic #3: Moved forward a smidge, same daytime condition.
