In response to your first point, I’m standing my ground in that it is quite literally an early thing taught in UX that white backgrounds aren’t as good as softer colors (for a variety of psychological and whatnot reasons, apparently). Just because it is widespread doesn’t mean it is good, more that it’s anachronistic. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Of course, what’s ideal doesn’t always beat out what is practical.

So all of that said, I find your second point compelling, and while it’s less than perfectly ideal, I agree that a cohesive, integrated template system is probably a better priority, and this might be a case where simplicity of development wins out over perfect design.
