Default Dark Mode uses core shaders to lighten some UI text. Caxton uses core shaders for its MSDF-based text rendering. Caxtonized Dark Mode applies Default Dark Mode's changes over Caxton's shaders. Currently only tested under 1.20.1, but it seems that the relevant parts didn't change in A While so it should work on any recent version.
