Directional Light with Render Mode "Not Important" and high Intensity values adds inverted light color to opposite side

Shadows/Lights

-

Steps to reproduce:
1. Download and open the attached project
2. Observe lit spheres

Expected result: light color added is consistent
Actual result: inverted color is added to the other side

Reproduced on 2017.4.0f1, 2017.4.21f1, 2018.3.7f1, 2019.1.0b4, 2019.2.0a6

  1. Resolution Note:

    When a light is marked as Not Important, it will be immediately converted to a SH light. The resulting artifact would just be the typical SH ringing. Since the directional light in the provided scene is using a really high intensity value, some ringing is expected.

    One way to mitigate this problem would be to set the directional light to either Mixed or Baked mode, and then rely on light probes to dering the affected dynamic objects.
