Yes, I definitely see the appeal for web apps.

Just personally don't want to read 2,000+ word articles of white text on a dark background just because I like the browser UI to be dark. Others might, though — hopefully browsers will offer a setting for dark mode independent of the OS-level setting.

That’s up to website developer to make a mess of it, or to desaturate the normal color scheme or whatever other pleasant option.

I think it'll be a while before most sites even consider adopting this (it's not even listed to check support on caniuse.com), and even if it does become widespread, reader mode has style-override controls to make the page more suitable for long-form reading just as it does now.
