When it's turned up that far, it does not fade at all. Obviously if you turn it up to 24 indoors, the type is going to be overwhelmed by the light level and become much less readable, but, y'know, if you point a bright torch directly at a book point-blank, the same thing will happen. This is not surprising, because it's the same thing: too much light, plus ink.
Last time I looked too much light in your face with or without ink was blinding.

Edited to add: the last time it happened to me it was natural light.
