This edit describes an interesting condition found occasionally on some hardware and provides a simple remedy.

For ease of reading (as compared to settings.xml), below is the modified text:
Note:

On very low brightness levels the LEDs will lose color precision and eventually turn off completely. This is a limitation of the LED strips and can’t be alleviated.
High brightness settings may trigger headlight flashing on configurations with dedicated headlight LEDs. If you observe this, try turning down this setting incrementally until it stops.

You're adding the note to front and rear brightness but not to headlights and taillights brightness. I certainly don't like the same thing being repeated 4 times, but it's not too consistent and also feels like the added note on brightness related flashing should go into the headlights options first and foremost?

I'm not sure, that logic for only having it in front/rear is not clear and just addressing some very specific cases. Unless we come up with some clearer justification I'd lean towards copy-pasting into all 4 help texts, at least that's consistent.

Alright, "copy and paste" done, if you're still awake!

I squashed the commits, did one very minor tweak and pushed to your branch. Merging, thanks.
