    Hey. This happens to me too.
    I hit this issue with LWRP, tried with URP too.
    Unity 2019.3.0f6.

    I have found that then the shadowcaster is sufficiently thin compared to the range light source that you can get a reproduction. Reproduction happens when the light gets too close to the shadowcaster.
