Ever since the 1.16 update, hostile mobs such as creepers will spawn in well lit areas (overworld). I've watched them spawn on top of torches. It's becoming incredibly frustrating to have any safe areas because mobs aren't following the spawn rules anymore. This was never an issue before the 1.16 update.
