Strange flickering of the darkness in the spatial storage dimension

Describe the bug
I am playing FTB Genesis ( which uses 1.19.2 Minecraft and 12.9.8 AE2 mod versions) on a MacBook Pro (early 2015). I noticed that when in the spatial storage dimension the blackness which is supposed to be the void outside of the limits of the spatial cells is actually flickering - there are flickering lights, that are quite often, moving even when I am not or when I am in esc-mode and honestly, even though I have no issues with epilepsia are getting to make me dizzy after a while.
Originally the devs suggested it might be Embeddium issue, but after testing in an entirely new instance (just minecraft 1.19.2 and AE2) i discovered that this is an issue just with the spatial dimension and I guess my graphics or something else. I don't play with shaders. Attaching a bunch of screenshots to illustrate the issue.
How to reproduce the bug
Entirely not sure if this is something mac-related or specifically the graphics ( Intel Iris Graphics 6100 1536 MB ) or something else. I can definitely reproduce it on my machine.
Expected behavior
Have things dark, no flashes or at least a way to disable them.

Crash log
There is no crash.

Just came by to report the same phenomenon, but on an M2 Pro. (OP's would be an Intel-chipped Mac). This is with a test instance that has only AE2 (fabric) and FAPI.
Edit: Fwiw, also broken in AoF7 (on my M2).
Will test on my PC later, but I imagine it's fine there.
Don't have a Mac, so it's really not something I can work on.
FWIW, implementation is here: https://github.com/AppliedEnergistics/Applied-Energistics-2/blob/main/src/main/java/appeng/client/render/SpatialSkyRender.java
I can confirm this fixed it for me. Now instead of these rays of light, you see gently appearing and disappearing stars (that are very rare in the "sky" and appearing/disappearing very slowly, so it doesn't feel as flashing lights anymore)!
Thanks a lot!
