This checks out.

I'm not a SWE ( though kinda code monkey anyways) and it's 2 monitors no rbg (just all black thinkpad, keyboard backlight disabled)

Two headsets ago I bought a G933 from Logitech, mainly because it had an AUX input on the USB-dongle which I thought was pretty neat, but that one had big unnecessary RBG strips on the sides of the earpiece. The most ridiculous usage of RGB I had seen till date. But I programmed an interface between CSGO and the RGB on the headset to indicate my health so the people watching from behind us at a lan could see it.

Anyway, I've always preferred white LED's and RGB can rarely replicate pure white.

One monitor connected to a thinkpad, mechanical computer from early 2000s, it's software engineering time.

I had my PC built for me while all i had to do was specify parts, tried to get fans with no light just to avoid this, got the almost exact model but with lights.

Now if i use my PC at night my room glows pink (not for any particular reason besides it being the most dominant in my rainbow led fans)

I just had to uproot and move several states away with my life in a luggage and a backpack <.< No fitting the monitors in there :(

Still got my glowy keebs though ;P

What's the point of RGB lights on computers? Does it somehow increase performance or something?

If you have a small child you can distract it with the pretty lights while you are gaming. Or at least thats what I am told.

My case has RGB fans. Not because I wanted them, but because I wanted a PC between Covid lockdowns, had to pick from a small selection and RGB fans cost less than regular ones.
