Description

I apologise if this is not the place for feature requests.

On my OLED TV, even at full brightness, I find that having Night Shift enabled really robs these gorgeous Aerials of their dimensionality and vibrance. I can increase the brightness via my Magic Keyboard, I think because it's an Apple-provided function key. But even using BetterDisplay's function key that Night Shift ends the Aerial.

I get that there are probably 99 good reasons for this and "Apple makes this part really easy" ain't featured in one. But I thought I'd mention it. Thanks for all your amazing work in the past and on recent Sonora fixes.

Research direction

The issue does not name any files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the code that starts and ends the Aerial screensaver and the existing brightness or keyboard-control handling; done means a user can temporarily disable Night Shift while viewing without ending the Aerial.
