Yes, the correct way to approach this is to make good versions of both and respect the user’s preference. Font size is similar: you’ll never make everyone happy with a single choice so you should respect the user’s ability to know what they need.

Well, not quite. Correct way is to simply have everything configurable instead of some product manager imposing their personal aesthetic.

Want green on pink? Just configure it! White on black or black on white. Same. Orange on brown? Have at it!

Computers are supposed to be infinitely personalizable, anything that takes away from that is a bug.
