I did not ask Emacs for them, they were populated there somehow, and
simply reported on their values.
Was using "emacs27 -q" (--no-init-file) to debug some problem with some
.el files I was working on. I agree with you that if the user insists,
they should take effect. Although a remark would help a user think more
about the options he uses.

That would be good enough. But the case of using "emacs -q" should impose
good contrast by default. Some have suggested that it could have been
the X Environment that set up the mode-line that way.
