The head script already resolves the theme early. I would check whether those critical colors can paint before the selected stylesheet takes over, and generate them from the same resolved theme. This is a hypothesis, not an iPhone reproduction. For a regression check: cold reload with a saved theme opposite to the system setting, and inspect the first frame as well as the final colors.
