While I sympathize with people for whom this matters, I still find it weird that other people care/are concerned about/want to control my experience.
I don’t want you to control my experience: Maybe I like having weird colors; maybe I’m color blind and need alternative colors; maybe I don’t want color at all and want a web experience that is text centric.
The model of the web is backwards and it makes browsers ridiculously over-complicated because they’re software designed to tel other people control my experience navigating and consuming information.

The problem is that the web as currently constituted allows (encourages) the web page author to dictate my experience and my browser will mostly obey. I’d prefer that there be no such thing as “pages”, just “information”, and that all display decisions would be made by software I completely control.
