Dye Color Not Same Using Outfit System Compared to Dying A Crafted Piece

I posed this in general but realized I should have put it in bugs, please feel free to delete my other post. (https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/395272/outfit-system-changing-dye-hues-for-colors-compared-to-using-same-color-on-crafted-piece)

Has anyone else noticed that when using the outfit system to dye armor via the outfit menu, the colors hue/saturation are not the same for a given color as compared to using the same color on the same piece but crafted in that style instead of using the outfit system?

I.e., Use the pack conquer red dye on a set of light legs crafted in the dwemer style. Use the exact same color on the exact same armor but via the outfit system instead of dying the piece itself and the color is no where near the same in appearance (looks flat and washed out).

    Further testing makes it appear that this is only affecting light armor, medium and heavy armor does not have this problem.

    It will likely help if you post screenshots with examples, and state what motif it is, exactly what dye etc.

    The motif is 15 dwemer, it occurs only on the light pieces, and the specific dye is pack conquer red. Ill post screen shots in a little bit.

    Below are the screen shots.

    The first is crafted light armor in motif 15 dwemer with pact conquer red dye and it is a shiny bright red dye:

    The same dye on the same armor but instead applied via the outfit system is a different color red that is flat and washed out:
