This is a View Transform/Color Management thing.

Change "View Transform" from "Filmic" to "Standard" under "Color Management" in the "Render" tab of the Properties Panel to have keep the image in the same colour space.

EDIT: Personally, I agree that having non-linear/non-sRGB behaviour by default is a bit confusing and potentially problematic (although not necessarily moreso than otherwise), but this does seem like intended behaviour.

As @WCN stated, this is a Color Management UX issue. While this is an area where Blender could improve, it isn't a bug in the program. As per the policy of the tracker, I will close this report.

Thanks @WCN for the explanation. Thought it has to do with render quality or something. Glad to understand why this happens.
