I mean, maybe it’s technically “darker” the literal sense, but any unfinished concrete is going to scatter light differently than glossy blue paint. And I don’t have anything against cleaning and maintaining the pool. It’s normal maintenance that has to happen every so often.
But if this doesn’t look tacky as shit and make it harder to see the reflection, I’ll eat a hat.
What’s being painted I guess is darker, according to you. All the current pictures makes it look like shit so I have no idea what it’ll end up looking like, if it gets finished. Any blue is going to look tacky if they keep it clean; otherwise, it’ll get dark and murky and if that happens what was the point?
The blue is darker than the concrete it is being painted on

My search for “large pool” on DDG that was very generic, but a straight-on view:

(what was the) current reflecting pool (the first picture I came across on DDG “Lincoln memorial reflecting pool” that WASN’T it being painted blue):
