Upstream applied a workaround to disable dark theme support for Initial Setup to not break the New User mode. See the upstream bug for more details.

The New User mode may be useful for OEM installs once Ubuntu Desktop stops using ubiquity.

I did a test install of Fedora 38 and I was surprised that Dark Mode works there for Initial Setup. They aren't patching Initial Setup for that either.
