Sigh.
Some sort of light is required.
Any external head torch or similar (which I have used in the past) would be less efficient that a back/front light. it would cast more light, in a less well directed way.
None of this quibbling changes the reality that when in darkness, reading on my phone is much more pleasant than reading on my eInk reader (or reading a paper book), as the lighting level is lower, and the contrast is higher.
