	Some people are required by the needs of study or occupation these days 
to spend a lot of time looking at screens.  This is basically
a problem for the indulgent parent who must deal with the effects of
late evening exposure to the tablet screens.  Most workers in the IT
field have pretty much enough exposure at work.
	No one is going to be staring at the new LED headlights.
	The yellow tinge of incandescent bulbs does not have the
same effect as the blue-white of the LED.
	You do not seem to have read the article.  On my notebook I have
messed with the settings in display hardware to alter the gamma and 
today have a faintly pink screen.
	The f.lux software varies the screen color from whiter to redder
throughout the day and can be set for night workers in the opposite
direction(white in the evening and redder after dawn).  Some Linux 
version have f.lux in the repositories.
