Yes, that seems to be how the System theme works now.

This add-on theme brings back the navy blue top bar if you miss that:

Is there a way it lighten the blackness of the "fix" so it looks like a dark blue instead?

There's no way to edit a theme but there are zillion themes to choose from. If you find one with the right shade of blue, let us know.

Alternately, the Firefox Color extension lets you create your own theme:

It seems to me that System Theme and Light Theme are the same. Menu Bar and Tabs are in a light grey and only respond to change if some theme other than System or Light is selected. System Theme is supposed to take it's colour setting from the Win 10 System settings but does.not ? Surely this has to be a bug ?
