The blue tint disrupts your sleep cycle and helps keep you awake when driving at night. There's definitely a trade off to be had depending on where these lights are located though.

One of the biggest arguments against blue light (specifically) being disruptive is that the sky spectrum in the evening is also blue (so naturally you'd be exposed to it). Modern airliners use blue lights for overnight flights with red lights at "dawn". I suspect screen brightness is more of an issue than any particular colour.
The amount of blue light you're exposed to from the night sky is trivial. Outdoors on a moonless night is 0.002 lux (of which, my understanding, about half is airglow and fairly blueish).
Compare to a not-too-bright single blue LED in your bedroom, emitting 0.5 lumens. You could spread that over 2000 square feet of surfaces and still have more blue light around than comes from the night sky.
Yes... that is why I divided by area.
It's kind of sad how many of us end up so impatient over common mistakes that we screw up just as badly in our eagerness to snap at people.
Obviously it's fudged a bit. The LED is not an isotropic emitter, and it's not at the center of a spherical room with perfectly reflective walls.
In practice, I suspect the amount of blue illumination from one dim blue LED in a large bedroom and the night sky are pretty much equal.
I have no stance on this. I don't even care. I can sleep well at night.
