Google Chrome has an extension for smart inversion and high contrast which adjusts websites.
The legacy Edge used to do this as a part of system wide high contrast in Windows, and I wondered if this might come to the new Edge, especially since Microsoft pioneered dark mode so well and has honed it for many years.
I used the system wide high contrast shortcut (Alt+LShift+PrintScreen) many times for reading outdoors or when I wanted to conserve my battery and run lower brightness indoors. I still use the legacy edge for this, since the Chrome extension isn't perfect and seems to make webpages load far slower.
Any plans to introduce this?

Sounds good,
1.
Edge insider has a flag to force dark mode on web pages that don't support it
All the info here: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Discussions/Latest-Edge-Canary-build-lets-you-enable-dark-mod...
I think eventually it's supposed to come out of experimental flags and become a proper option in the settings.

based on the theme you set in Edge insider settings, websites show their dark/light version to you automatically. edge://settings/appearance
