Therefore, instead of having your browser enforce a lowered contrast for yourself, you prefer that the majority of the rest of us, with commodity LCDs, suffer too little contrast by asking for the colors to be changed on the website.

No, you should properly profile your display and set the correct LUT and contrast settings so that you may get clipping in dark scenes, but correct contrast everywhere else.
Design websites for correct display devices, and calibrate your display devices to correct for imperfections.
Asking for users with good displays to intentionally reduce the displays' quality to simulate a bad display is just ridiculous. That's what color profiles, LUTs, and tone mapping are for.
That's exactly the problem. Too much contrast is a thing with text and can make a website uncomfortable to look at (for me at least). It's hard to find a source for that, but most people seem to agree (see ~95% of other sites).
