I think you may be misunderstanding. See this image:

Even ignoring the "disregard my system settings" overdose of
white, the UI is still just generally very difficult to read due to what
appears to be a (more or less) buggy theme. Note in particular:
1. Invisible menu items.
2. "Very-light-grey on white" menu items.
3. Generally messed up text on buttons.
4. Overzealous anti-aliasing on the dialog text such as "C:\Users..."
and "Always create a backup copy". Not as bad as the first three, but
it'll still hurt a guy's eyes after a while.
