Unless you have data or something else you're just conclusion shopping your own pet theory. Plenty of social sites have dark modes so are you confusing just the default behavior for usage? Regardless if your goal is to not drive away users or to foster a good community acting with such hostility contradicts yourself. With due respect you could ease off or step away a bit as whatever valid points you bring up are immediately off putting by your general attitude. This site ain't some rich execs handing you excuses show some class solidarity
I don't think those two ideas correlate anywhere near how you think they do and this comes off more as a personal projection onto how at-large user bases would behave. There's ample data to show the popularity of dark modes and their usage rate over light modes when available and there are several other more logical and simple reasons to think a user base from a banned sub didn't make it here than to assume they were all online enough to transition to discord, then here, but bounced because changing a user profile drop down was One Step Too Far. You have valid light mode feedback, but you don't need to wrap it up in pet theories to make said feedback.
Because we're trying to turn this site into an alternative for people on the subreddit and making it dark mode default drives away most users.
No social media sites are dark mode, it drives users away, as evidenced by a once 10,000 member online sub becoming only ever 500 people here.
Showing all votes is an improvement over reddit though.

No social media sites have dark mode as default, so when trying to make a substitute one to transition users it's a dumb idea.
