The same with brightness. I have a shortcut to lower the white point because the lowest brightness level is still far to bright in complete darkness.

My gen1 kindle backlight is so bright at the lowest level that I angle it away from me to read at night.

Just typing this out makes me realize I should get a different ereader than wait for it to die since it’s clearly never going to die. It’s been like 15 years

brightness should go the other way too.

for example I read kindle books on my phone in dark mode (white text on a black background). Having the brightness all the way up isn't fully bright white text, it is more like brightish grey.

To get bright text to read in bright environments, I set the kindle app to black text on white background, then use accessibility to invert colors. I get noticeably brighter text on a black background.

There’s an accessibility option in iOS to reduce white point that can be mapped
