No, I definitely don't mind. In fact, I've been using tog with that
patch since and it's really grown on me. And combined with your above
argument, I actually think it's the better option now too :)

can look very different from light to dark backgrounds. I've been
meaning to try a dark terminal again but my brain struggles reading
code on dark backgrounds!)
