Don't get this the wrong way, I like the recent ones very much too, and I'm sure I'm able to use either style as I work, and take delight in doing so. They are excellent concepts. However, the thing that initially got me interested in this theme was, it seemed there was finally going to be a great looking dark theme without too busy contrasty bright areas.

Now the author is having second thoughts, thinking maybe he should redo the whole theme as a lighter one, because it seems hard on the eyes in its current state. And now there's talk of removing the lines (that weren't originally there), so maybe it's going the full circle back to where it was after all, with just carefully and moderately improved contrast in some key details, not everywhere.

These are the dangers of trying to please everyone and risking ending up with something entirely different - and of course I'm just one more person in that "everyone" crowd, haha
I agree.

I very much like the first screenshots as well.
