Has anyone else experienced their MacBook Pro (MacBookPro15,2) getting extremely hot while charging? This is while the computer is closed and in standby mode.

Charged it now a couple of times from <10% to 100% and the bottom of the computer is extremely hot. Hotter then its ever been before. The laptop is on a Belkin stand so there is plenty of airflow.
 
I am experiencing my Late 2013 MacBook Pro getting very warm with macOS Big Sur. When the MBP is "on" and the screen is closed and it's plugged in there is a noticeable heat that did not happen with macOS Catalina. And as I use my MBP with Big Sur there is also a lot of noticeable heat under normal conditions.
