An Addendum to the Theme Toggle Snippet

Recently I wrote about a little function I wrote to toggle between the light and dark theme in KDE - Plasma and switching my Emacs theme in the process. I still wasn't quite satisfied and tweaked it a bit more. I like my desktop to be neat and somewhat pleasing
