Comment:

 Hi @Rvervuurt. It seems to me that what you're describing is likely due to
 the same root cause I described in
 [https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/60025#comment:6 #60025].

 Essentially, setting the stylesheet directory option in the DB and then
 filtering the `get_stylesheet()` function that returns that option from
 the DB was making use of a race condition where the `STYLESHEETPATH`
 environment variable used in `locate_template()` prior to 6.4.0 would get
 set to the DB option before the theme was initialized and the filter was
 added. This workaround could be used to load templates from a subdirectory
 of the theme, while making sure other theme files and stylesheets would be
 referenced from the root of the theme.

 I'm going to close this as a duplicate of #60025 so we can keep
 discussions about a fix in one place. Feel free to follow and add details
 to the discussion on that ticket.
