Oh, it flashes, but from what I gather (never seen one in person ;p), it's supposed to do some subtle frontlight modulation to alleviate the "burn your retinas off" brightness issue during the white flash.

(And, yeah, that's technically software, but it's baked into the fl & eink kernel drivers on Zelda. And that's different on Rex, which is why I was curious about what happens with the PW4 in practice).
