Comment (by wildworks):

 > I'm not sure I understand why these pages use a full white background
 color. There have been long discussions with a recent attempt to use a
 full white for the admin pages background (I think in #62831). The
 prevalent opinion was to not do that. Those changes were reverted. Now I
 see full white again, which is against any usability, UX, and
 accessibility best practice I'm aware of. It's a well-known design
 principle:

 It seems there have been some discussions regarding background colors in
 Gutenberg.

 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/76869

 In the latest Gutenberg, the background color appears to be `#fcfcfc`.
 @cgastrell, @simison, @jameskoster and @aduth might know something about
 it.
