Manufacturers like Samsung and Motorola have their own version of the app in the play store, without disclosing it. Unless you have a custom phone or got lucky you might not be stock
No problem. Btw it’s been like that for a long time so it may not be down to the device. It could be something that is only activated if you have an OLED display? I also think ReVanced can force the black theme AFAIK

Wait, can you show me where that setting is? That’d be great for my phone!
No.

It was probably shown to you in a banner that looked like an ad that you closed out /s

Pixel 7 Pro. I think that counts as stock YouTube as you can get (same vendor for device and application).
odd, perhaps I’m overlooking a setting
I’m on a Pixel 7 Pro running Android 14, YouTube build 18.45.41 The only YouTube options for the theme are light, dark, and device.
Hopefully that helps you narrow it down.
Will be grabbing that version! Thank you!

That might be possible, I’ve got an aftermarket screen but this phone didn’t come with an OLED panel
