In dark mode and when theme color is too bright, the "selected" icon (when using icons on md-switch) will turn black making it hard to see while on dark color mode.

Start with the linked Lit Playground reproduction and inspect the md-switch selected icon behavior when icons are enabled in generated dark themes with a bright theme color. Trace the switch styling for the selected checkmark and verify that the icon remains visible in dark mode and across the reported color condition.
