#000 needs to be used tastefully, otherwise it can be visually overbearing.

Do you find this page visually overbearing because all of the non-downvoted comments are #000? I have never seen a page of text on a computer screen look overbearing because its color was #000 and not lighter.

What stands out more? The comments, or the names of those who comment?

Experiment, write this css into your dev tools:

    body * {
      color: #000 !important;
    }

No, but I probably would if the background were white.
