[Python] QTableWidget cells background color has unwanted "rounded padding"

When I set the background color of items in my QTableWidget using item.setBackground(QColor(210,210,210)), the color doesn't fill the cell entirely, there is some sort of padding with rounded corners : image

Is there a way to get rid of that "rounded style"? The person in this post is also using .setBackground() but doesn't have this issue.

WHAT I TRIED :

When using QSS to change the background color of the table items, all the cells are filled-in correctly (image), however I want to be able to choose which rows to apply the background color to.

QTableView::item {
color: rgb(50,50,50);
background-color: rgb(0,180,0);
}
QTableView {
background-color: rgb(240, 240, 240);
font: 16px;
}


I also tried to fiddle with the border and padding, but it just removes all background colors, no matter the values.

QTableView::item {
color: rgb(50,50,50);
border: 0px;
padding: 4px;
}
