Anecdotal and personal observations: Regular grocery stores have dedicated service entrances for deliveries. These dark grocery stores are often just using whatever repurposed single door retail space they could get, i.e places that were built for regular foot traffic retail. Also the amount of ebikes and delivery scooters coming and going on the sidewalks in front of these places, as well as blocking them, has become something a nuisance for pedestrians. While not necessarily "disruptive" but certainly somewhat dystopian feeling - these dark grocery stores just put up paper over the windows. Not transitionally but permanently. It's really not any kind of an improvement over the blight of an empty storefront.
