terraform 1.10.1 takes terraform.tfvars when applying planned file

[DorisEckel8412]

Terraform Version

1.10.1

Terraform Configuration Files

variable this_is_variable {
   type = string
}

// in terraform-<env>.tfvars 
this_is_variable = "foo"

// in terraform.tfvars 
this_is_variable = "bar"

Debug Output

https://gist.github.com/DorisEckel8412/3bc826f64ad9702739ef7d252aa28947

Expected Behavior

Use only the values already in the planned file and not tries to override them.

Actual Behavior

It tries to override with entries from terraform.tfvars

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform plan -var-file=terraform-.tfvars -out plan.output
2. terraform apply plan.output

Additional Context

From the documentation and until 1.9.x it was taking the planned file and ignoring the default terraform.tfvars file. Other stuff about variables was mentioned as fixed in 1.10.1 but this still appears.

The same on our side. This is breaking our whole module test workflows:

If you add the the custom tfvars file terraform.germanywestcentral.tfvars to the apply, then it is working.
