That's fine, and I even like shades-up on domestic daytime flights. I don't understand this fetish for shades-down, lights-out at midday on a 2-3 hour flight.

Long hauls are another matter... that TLV-EWR flight (UA85?) with the 11:30-ish departure was I think almost 13 hours due to winter headwinds.
