Environment
Windows build number: 10.0.18362.86
At Commit: 6c98fc1

What you're doing and what's happening:
Open a PowerShell prompt via the Terminal and execute a command that paints the foreground same as the background:

Write-Host "FOO BAR" -ForegroundColor DarkBlue -BackgroundColor DarkBlue

What's wrong / what should be happening instead:
The foreground is always a little bit brighter

Edit:
With the standard PowerShell theme it's easier to spot when using red:

Write-Host "FOO BAR" -ForegroundColor DarkRed -BackgroundColor DarkRed
