I think the bigger value is in decoupling the visual style choices from the framework used. This one seems to be going the other direction. Not only is the overall visual style "burned in", but it is permanently set to "dark mode". This seems like a safe choice only for small, short-lived applications.

(By the way, the new stuff from Google in which they have made Material Design much more configurable, is a great shift in the right direction. Of course it would be even better if the whole material-ness of an application were a runtime switch, but there are significant obstacles to that.)
