It looked great for me. The really subtle distortion effects that were added into really add a dissociation effect were an amazing add. This was, and I feel quite passionately about this, one of the most entertaining, enthralling, stressful hours of TV I have ever seen. Wow. What a work of art.
To me it was almost unwatchable. My eyes aren’t great, and excessive use of darkness / lack of contrast magnifies that. I have the same problem with some video games.
Is it possible you were sufficiently immersed to not notice the horrible color banding? I am very confident this was not a creative decision, and it was so bad as to be nearly unwatchable (I paused several times in the middle of the episode, downloaded multiple pirated versions to make sure it wasn’t something on my end, and even googled the problem, which only resulted in me seeing spoilers).
It looked great on my OLED. The true blacks made a large difference in producing detail in dark scenes. I imagine a traditional backlit LED would have looked much worse.

Could you give an example or two of these distortion effects you speak of? I guess they were too subtle for me.

I have an LG OLED. The episode looked laughably bad in many scenes. Very interesting how some people apparently had no issue with the video quality.
