I not sure what age are you. But have you notice that, older people have problem seeing in dark or at night ?
They often complain that the place is too dark. While the young said it's fine?
That is the problem when you constantly expose to light too bright and glare.
Especially now 6500k is not enough for people. That is some alarming problem coming.
What happen if people chasing till 7500k or 8000k ?
3500k or yellow light is not dimly lit. Yellow light can be very bright if the lumens is high. Again don't confuse between bright and color or Lumens and kelvin.
Have you use before downlight bulb CFL which is 3500k 1600L ? If you use before, you know how bright that yellow CFL bulb.
Do you know light color have wavelenght? Why street light or your car head light is yellow? Why all the car brand don't put a 7000k head light?

Most Chinese coffee-shops use bright white LED T8 tube lights and they cater to both the young and old.
Most highways use bright white LED streetlights.
Bright white 7000K LED car headlights cannot be used because they are glaring to the eyes of drivers of oncoming cars at night, which is unavoidable, ie the drivers have to look directly at the bright white 7000K car headlights for more than 2 seconds and be glared or blinded.
....... At home, residents do not have to look directly at the bright white 7000K LED T8 frosted tube lights for more than 2 seconds and be glared or blinded. Similarly for the difference between looking directly at the sun for more than 2 seconds and looking indirectly at things down here on earth that are being illuminated by the bright and white sunlight during the day.
