Light Anchor component has non-zero default values for Elevation when adding a new Light Anchor component
How to reproduce:
1. Create a new Universal 3D project
2. In the Hierarchy Window create “Area Light“ GameObject (Light > Area Light)
3. Select the “Area Light“ and in the Inspector Window change the Transform position and rotation to 0
4. Add the “Light Anchor“ component
5. Observe the result
Expected result: Light Anchor component’s Elevation value is set to 0
Actual result: Light Anchor component’s Elevation has a set default value which is -5.71
Reproducible with: 2022.3.58f1, 6000.0.38f1, 6000.1.0b6, 6000.2.0a3
Reproducible on: MacOS 15.3 (M4), Windows 10 (by user)
Not reproducible on: No other environments tested
Note:
- Applying the Light Anchor component to a Light GameObject and attaching another GameObject to the “Anchor Position Override” field in the Light Anchor component causes the Orbit to not fully align with the assigned GameObject (video attached)

Resolution Note:
The light anchor component is designed to work based on your view, which we determine from your Main cameras perspective. Since your camera was likely 1 meter up on the Y axis, the default value of Elevation was -5.71.
If your main camera would be at 0 0 0 (I added a video), anchor components would start with 0 elevation as well.
