Would the rise of wearing sunglasses during the last 50 or so years might have any effect as well, I wonder? After all, the eye presumably responds the same whether it's getting insufficient light because someone is indoors or because that person is outside but shielding it from >10k lux light with tinted shades.

I doubt it. Most kids don't wear sunglasses. And myopia typically presents in childhood.
