Most/all of the points were well known back in the days when I used CRT monitors - he's not reporting something new. In fact, reading some of the comments, I'm quite surprised people still believe there are inherent benefits to dark mode. There's not really much research supporting it.
It's just a preference thing. I myself prefer it as I grew up on terminals where dark was the default (and often, the only option). For those who prefer the opposite: Totally OK.
