Although I agree in general, honestly I can say that the backlight is good for flexibility (those few situations in which etc.). If not having that layer at all dramatically improved the visual quality, I would do without (but I cannot compare, or never did proper "on field" research).

BTW: If I have to read in dimmed light, I prefer light-on-pitch-black OLED. Not sure it is healthy, though ; )
