Are you sure that the stripped LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX 10.15 load command 
would negatively impact dark mode if dark mode were actually implemented 
(at all or correctly---I have no idea about the status there) in LO, or 
is that speculation on your part?

What are other features besides the "e.g. dark mode" that are negatively 
affected by the stripped LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX 10.15 load command?

My understanding is that that commit does allow to build with SDK 10.15 and at the same time avoid blurry text.  But, as it strips a LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX 10.15 load command from the soffice executable, it might negatively affect other macOS 10.15 features, is that what you mean?
