Thank you for reporting a bug to Unity. After reviewing the behavior, we've confirmed it aligns with the current design and intended use of the feature. We understand this may differ from your expectations or workflow. We will close this case as 'As Designed.' If you have feedback on how the feature could better meet your needs, please let us know - we value your input and consider it in future improvements.

How to reproduce:
1. Create and open a new project
2. Open Edit -> Preferences -> Colors
3. Open the Color Picker for "Playmode tint"
4. Change the alpha value from 1 to 0
5. Enter Play Mode
6. Observe the Editor

Actual result: The Editor colors change to pure black (in general, the tint replaces the original Editor color and is not overlaid)
Expected result: The tint is transparent and therefore not applied, and the original Editor color scheme is shown instead (in general, the tint is overlaid over the Editor and does not replace the original Editor color)

Reproducible in: 2023.1.0a1, 6000.0.65f1, 6000.3.3f1, 6000.4.0b3, 6000.5.0a4

Reproduced on: Windows 11 Pro (25H2)
Not reproduced on: No other environment tested
