Modern street lighting provides a way clearer view of the scene imo than the old sodium lighting. Maybe it's just brighter now.

It's about 100000x brighter and if your bedroom is next to a street lamp, good luck getting some sleep.

After they swapped out the lights at my job I couldn't sleep after night shifts. It's pitch dark but the biology thinks it was noon an hour ago.

When I was an medical intern back in the day and worked 24 hour shifts every third day, I bought a roll of thick black vinyl and taped it to the window frame. 0.0 light got through.

Providing a day-like view of the scene should not be the primary goal of nighttime lighting.
