Personally, I disagree. I turn the brightness up when I'm in a bright place 
and can't see the screen - I turn it down if I'm in a dark place and the 
screen is blinding me - it has nothing to do with with whether I'm low on 
battery power or whether I've finally got round to plugging in the charger.

Just my thoughts
