I would definitely like higher-contrast lettering and tick marks on some gauges, too. Some planes are fine, but the redone ones are adjusted and now low contrast and hard to read.
I like the previous (non-redone style) where the numbers and ticks are white.
And I don't want to adjust my whole screen's gamma just to get the gauges more readable. That's like turning up your home's heat because one room is missing a window and is too cold, making the rest of the rooms too warm. Best just to fix the window.
