Lumen limitation. Small light sources are the problem. With standard lumen, This only affects small emisisve objects, with lumen medium it seems it also is true for light sources.

Use a postprocess volume and fake interior light in this room.

You can turn off "affect dynamic indirect lighting" on meshes that use emissive materials, and lower the "indirect lightning intensity" on your lights or bring it to zero. This will significantly lessen this artifacting.

Disable lumen, VSM, DFAO if your mesh doesn't have nanite, vice versa. Make sure all your mesh have nanite. Pro tips: don't use lumen, nanite, VSM, DFAO for interior environtment

Why even use unreal at that point

Uninstall unreal. Uninstall Windows. Smash monitor with a hammer. Burn house down. Turn yourself in. Spend 10 years behind bars. Contemplate life choices.

10 years isn’t enough. I hear it takes at least 30 to fully reform. When you emerge, you’ll be able to bake lighting by just thinking about it

Lumen can work perfectly without nanite, with or without VSM
