Blue light is important for night vision, so either of those options would lead to less of an ability to see well after sunset.

No, glia support neurons; they do things like redirecting blood flow to more-active-than-usual neurons, mylenate axons, etc. They wouldn’t form a mesh around neurons’ photoreceptors the same way they do neurons’ somas and axons. What the article describes is that glia actually are critical at allowing for color vision during the day and night vision at night, since on land we’d get too much blue light to see color with much fidelity were it not for glia, and a similar filtration process helps us see at night. It’s not that it’s not as bad as it could be, it’s actually that vision is better this way (barring one small blind spot outside of our fovea–which, being outside of the fovea, would have low acuity anyways).

This arrangement actually optimizes color vision in the daytime and night vision at night. Evolution selected for the correct arrangement for those of us living on land:

Even somewhere warmer, I’m a 2 year-round, too. I just have one very cool sheet that I use in the summer.

I actually don’t know the way you’re supposed to beat Super Metroid “correctly.” I’ve always done what I ended up learning was a major sequence break resulting from a bunch of bomb jumps to get the power bomb early, and use that to get some other stuff that allows me to beat the game out of order.
I also never start Metroid Prime without immediately getting the double jump. I used to be up there on speed running that game. I don’t play the player’s choice or switch versions whenever I decide to crack it out. The original was literal perfection.

I don’t internet without uBlock. I honestly couldn’t imagine it any other way.

Same. I still occasionally browse Reddit, but I have a rule that I don’t post or comment there. I do post and comment here.

A bit of an exaggeration, sure. But only a bit. The lay summary of the article I referenced states the following:
Venkataraman et al. find that the paper commits every error that it was possible to make in the paper: leaving out important papers, including irrelevant papers, using duplicate papers, mis-coding their societies, getting the wrong values for “big” versus “small” game, and many others.
“commits every error that it was possible to make in the paper,” and, “completely incorrect,” aren’t very different.

This study this meme is based on is completely incorrect and should be retracted. Here’s a lay summary of its issues:

And the published article detailing the problems with that study’s issues:
