This reminds me of the temperature of lights that my backyard neighbors have. Everyone is entitled to their own preferences when it comes to light bulb temperature... until they do it wrong.
The spectrum difference indicates that the cold bulb has been changed out for an LED model. The others most likely will be changed out as well as they fail.
A simple web search finds a bunch of screw-in bulbs using LED sources in 1800K, which is similar to an incandescent bulb on a dimmer at a low setting, or a candle. A typical incandescent at full brightness is 2700K. Daytime sunlight is 5000-5700K.
I doubt they're sodium bulbs either, these are really modern fixtures and i see no reason for them to use anything other than LEDs, quite possibly not even in the form of standard bulbs.

Feels like a hint in a game level. The bright light indicates the path forward; Maybe there is a secret nearby.
Time to get the shovel
Don't forget to cut down any nearby bushes and smash anything resembling a porcelain pot to see what's inside.

I’ve been know to just replace the bulbs. For example the walking path around my last apartment.
normalize fixing the environment around you
Some kinds of lights turn "warmer" the longer they burn, so maybe this one was just recently swapped and is actually from the same box as the others
This one is too different, definitely a different LED
I can hit that toggle switch for you… for $400.

LEDs can be warm. Someone just selected a mismatched bulb.
Not compared to other bulbs.
LEDs can literally be red how much warmer than that do you want?
Leds can be pretty much any color we want. You are not providing helpful input.
So you admit that your first post was pointless then
Very level headed and sensible.

i can all but guarantee these kinds of fixtures have never used incandescent bulbs and are not even designed to handle the heat from them.
You are correct. The yellow bulbs are most likely sodium bulbs. You would not use an incandescent bulb in that fixture.

Those are at least ten years old. And these do not contain standard house hold bulbs.

Thou art incorrect
All of them are pretty new LEDs. It’s built in 2021
Break it: chaotic good.

Thant's mildly disappointing, more than infuriating... Unless you have anger issues of course
