People like to bring up how awful pinstripes were for legibility in early Mac OS X days when there’s discussion about Liquid Glass.

I find that argument not great. You consistently have black text over a white background where neither changes colors.

Also, a huge majority was still on Mac OS 9 or older during this era because by the time Panther came out, not only did pinstripes get even more muted but this is when Mac OS X started to get more popular.
