On OLED screens dark mode does actually save power. My phone switches to dark mode when I turn on battery saving mode.
It probably doesn't matter much in the grand theme of this, but let's keep the criticism factual. God knows you don't need to make up arguments to criticize Nestle.
It only really does anything if the pixels can turn off completely. So the dark theme would have to feature full black backgrounds, not dark grey or anything like that.
That's not true. You can go upwards to 33% grey and it'll have the same effect as completely black if I recall correctly, but the all around energy saved by using dark mode isn't anything to write home about, really.

That's a lot actually. Only that much outside on sunny days, but still.
