This feels like the old Coke vs. Pepsi blind-taste challenge.
Pepsi won a majority of the time on first taste because it is instantly sweeter.
But long term people prefer the flavor and full experience of Coke.
In my experience this translates: the dark-theme instantly feels more clear and crisp.
But over time I find that the dark creates too much contrast and slows me down.
Personally I'm a fan of dark backgrounds that use a dark grey background with various earth tones for the foreground. Rather low contrast.
