Reduce Blooming Effect on new M1 Macbook Pro 16"?

Surely it's possible to solve this with software right? It seems like it should be possible to make the mini-LED behave like a standard LCD (with uniform backlight) with software. So if you're bothered by the bloom, you can just switch over to uniform brightness.

Blooming would be reduced if you turned down the brightness a bit, but that may not leave you with the picture you want to look at all day every day.

The blooming effect on my new M1 MacBook Pro is quite pronounced as you can in this comparison picture - the machine on the left is a Samsung Chromebook OLED. I've read about this blooming effect with mini-LED displays but is this much normal and is there anyway to reduce the effect?

"The Liquid Retina XDR display improves upon the trade-offs of typical local dimming systems, where the extreme brightness of LEDs might cause a slight blooming effect because the LED zones are larger than the LCD pixel size. This display is designed to deliver crisp front-of-screen performance with its incredibly small custom mini-LED design, industry leading mini-LED density, large number of individually controlled local dimming zones, and custom optical films that shape the light while maintaining image fidelity and extreme brightness and contrast."
