The author showed that Apple‘s implementation only cuts two colors by roughly 50%. And given we perceived light non-linearly aren’t they right that that really doesn’t make much of a difference?

If someone put up an article saying “Turning down your headphones 1% will help stop hearing loss!“ most people are going to ignore it. OK yeah technically it will, but not to any meaningful amount.

So which do you think it really is? Cutting two wavelengths' outputs in half, or reducing them by a mere 1% as per your trifling comparison?

And when you combine that on top of dark mode and dimming screen that does make a real difference.
