No, darkmode is not redesign for redesigns sake - it brings benefit for its users.

But redesign for "modernisation" sounds like doing it for the sake of it, unless people would benefit somehow from improved UX. Modernisation alone does not tell this however, I would expect slick awesome buttons, but some ugly, but important buttons gone.

What is “redesign for redesign’s sake” even supposed to mean then? It’s pretty obvious that they think visitors will like the new design.

What about for "improved navigability" then?

[hellomyguys]

It's pretty explicitly stated that they think a benefit of the redesign is improved UX.

Well, in that case it's not a redesign for redesign's sake regardless of how it sounds, because they added a dark mode now :)
