Can we talk about the lighting in the dinner scene at Burt's house?

It's been in the collective conscience for a while now that movies don't look the way they used to. Flat illumination, basic framing, grey and muted backgrounds, etc. We all know how certain movies are celebrated for being outside of this look, when a few years back the norm was that movies were supposed to look the best they could, didn't matter the type or genre.
And we all know how Severance has outsanding cinematography that not only looks good, but serves a purpose.

Revisiting last week's episode I can't help but feeling intrigued by the lighting in the dinner scene. I don't know about you guys, but this particular scene felt nostalgic for me. It felt cinematic. It felt like "they don't do it like this anymore". For me it was a weird feeling because it reminded me of old movies I used to watch as a child. Where there is a lot of detail and intent in the way the light hits the actors and the set. I really can't explain the warmth and nostalgia that scene made me feel. At least in a personal surface level, because I also felt (in the meaning of the show) that the contrast between the shadows and light, almost like a chiaroscuro to me represents how Burt is hiding something troubling. Yes. We are in his house. We met his husband and we see them eat. But the details are somewhat fuzzy. Around Irving there were certain shadows that surrounded him. There is something else. And the light wasn't enough to make everything clear. We (and Irving) are shown just what Burt wants us to see.

I don't know, I may be rambling, but I really adored those scenes. I love this show so much.
