It’s just dull.
I do find your thoughts interesting because they seem to differ more most. If you think Sky News press/studios/titles are dull that's entirely your right. I'm just confused about what it is that you like, because it comes across as though you are keen on the BBC, fine, but their on-screen graphics are unimaginative and boring - visually. By contrast, I think Sky News's on screen efforts have vastly improved since 2021 refresh and are probably the best they've been.
I accept your point about the studios, that said - that has changed recently. To be fair, the Westminster studio wasn't bad, it may have lacked (or they never made use of) a newsroom view, which many like. The problem with it, is it was over used and its versatility wasn't as flexible as I think they may have originally intended.
Now, if you just personally aren't enthralled by Sky News's output these days, that's your opinion and I have no interest or right to change that. But, technically as far as design goes, Sky is significantly better (excluding the glass box which I do think needs more than a few lights - though I appreciate the effort and direction).
What in particular do you find more appealing about the BBC and Sky News 2005 than you do Sky News presently? I'm genuinely interested. Sky News 2005 is obviously dated now, but it did have some grandeur which is missed.
