For some that may be the case, for others not. For me it would probably a distraction. Taste varies :-)
What I would understand were if it had some function, like varying the colors and slowly pulsing, or brightness according to temperature and various loads, split into where it's making sense.
Does this exist? Am I so out of the loop that I'm unaware of it? The only thing I've seen so far was changing color according to fan speed. Otherwise only decoupled cycling of color-patterns.
Anyway, I prefer black/grey/silver and otherwise featureless
monoliths for now ;->
OTOH hardware support seems to be wonky, because all proprietary, has to be reverse engineered, may sometimes brick your device, or isn't exposed at all under Linux (AMD-GPU).

I don't know, something measured via eBPF piped into https://openrgb.org/ ?

Well... thanks, but NO.
(What about security btw.?)
