Browser / Version: Firefox 133.0
Operating System: Windows 10
Tested Another Browser: Yes Edge

Problem type: Something else
Description: Using a theme other than "light" adds themeRefresh=1
Steps to Reproduce:
When using a theme other than "light" and opening a youtube page in private browsing it adds "&themeRefresh=1" to the end of the URL, this causes the entire page to refresh after 1 second beyond being frustrating it occasionally seems to cause issues depending on the timing of the refresh with the page displaying correctly or being unresponsive thereafter.
