Yes, this black backgrounds cause pain in my eyes, physically. I was able to apply other colors as default for clip backgrounds. I exported colors, took default foreground colors for tracks, did some excel math them, inserted it back, and imported. Now my default background colors depend on foreground color (they are about 3 times darker, as I remember). But it is ruined if I change track colors, it irreversibly changes foreground color, and background became not matching, it a is disaster. It would be big improvement, if background would always depend on foreground automatically, with enough options available, of course.
There is deep, awful problem with suggested color scheme, it just hurts my eyes, and my mind.
