Cause it is better to view with a little light than total blackness in
the room. Easier on the eyes.

Hmm,
That is why there is night mode. Also this mode saves energy.

My Samsung has a light in the bottom of the frame that casts a small
light down onto the base. But it is programmable -always on/ on when
tv is on/ always off. I found it distracting and programmed it off.

I agree, my brother's TV has a silver frame around the screen and I find it
more distracting than my Sharp that has a plain black frame.

Hi,
Our old Panasonic had silver frame. New Panasonic has piano black smooth
frame which we like better.
