This is a weird comment. The fact that users expect changes to be saved is not a problem, they will see a "how you sure you want to leave" if they don't. Even browsers support this now, if you were to try and close the whole tab/window.

The "ok" button can be labelled "save" if that makes sense. I don't think that takes anything away from the article's point.

"Just get another theme" is not a solution. The point is that most themes are this way, whether default themes or others. Most apps also don't have theming options, other than light/dark. Or do you mean that end users should make their own theme?

The author chose a non-default theme with apparently low contrast. They should simply use a default theme or a better custom one.
