Samsung, 

Before the stable release of One UI 9 Android 17, please go back and implement the expanded dark theme settings. I really cannot, for the life of me, understand why you guys would deliberately omit this AOSP setting. Google specifically developed this enhancement and functionality to correct a problem with the force dark mode setting that lives in Developer Options. That setting is all or nothing. Google went back, created the expanded dark theme to:

1. address the all-or-nothing issue and provide a solution to solve it
2. put control back into the hands of the consumers

It does not make sense why you guys would deliberately omit a solve that was built into the core of Android 17.

No expanded dark theme options.

Advanced features dark mode apps has not been useful at all since its implementation.

Force dark mode developer setting is all or nothing.
