Some that loaded the M preview noticed the inclusion of a dark mode, which subsequently got snatched out of the builds by the time it was released. Well, Dark mode is back and this time I think it'll not only stick, but be more useful

Some things... first this is not just a hidden toggle. It's a featured, fully fleshed out function. It acts as both a dark and a night mode... it appears to be a scheduled thing, etc.

Awesomesauce... I've wanted a dark theme for a while now, and going the Layers or CMTE route isn't the most ideal, so a baked in dark mode... can't wait.

This is something that, in my opinion, should have been launched in LP.
Having the option and not using it is better than no option at all.

Well, I think it wasn't fully fleshed out yet, so they figured pull it. But they tossed it in the 5.2 Preview just to take the temperature of the users. It's obvious they wanted more than just a toggle that said "Dark Mode".
