If there are two objects together, Lara sometimes interacts with both with a single key press (E key for PC version). The main issue here is when one of the objects is a resource, and the other object is some milestone object, which sometimes causes Lara to not comment on her interaction with the milestone object. One example scenario is a resource next to a document, where sometimes the tab key to read the document doesn't appear, and you'd have to go through all the docs in Lara's inventory to find it. It is worse if Lara is a maximum amount for the resource, because then all you hear is Lara commenting that her inventory is full, preventing her from commenting on the milestone object.

This problem didn't prevent me from reaching 100% completion, but I missed out on some of Lara's chatter about the objects she was interacting with. I could explain specific situations where this was an issue, but I wanted this post to be spoiler free.

This has definitely happened to me, but as you mentioned, it didn't prevent me from 100%-ing. It seems like a poor design choice to place interactable objects so close together.

The same for me on Xbox a couple of times. Instead of commenting on the artifact she goes "I can't carry anymore".  Though I was still able to view artifact.

there's one place where this might be a problem on Xbox

In Paititi, the murder investigation side-quest indicates that a body needs to be looked-at.  In both play-throughs I found Lara is bothered by the fact that she couldn't pick up any more . . . plant of some kind, can't remember which, but it's right next to the body so I still don't know what she finds out, if anything, for pressing X next to the body.  So I'm trying to remember to go there and force it by using the relevant herb, pick up the bunch that's there, then trigger the mission.
