We just moved into a new office and one of the best things about it is that we now have small offices and I can keep the curtains closed and the lights off all day. Why would you want more light, especially natural light ? I never open my curtains at home either.
In some civilized countries natural light is actually a requirement, by law. Not in the server closet etc, but in your office it is. You can, of course, adjust the curtains or whatever to get the exact amount you prefer (which typically changes throughout the day, as the sun passes)

I wonder if it is related to coming from a northern country (Scandinavia) where ~1/4 of the year is really dark.

I believe that office workers are required to have actual windows and honestly I don't think even the employers think it's right to have windowless offices

So #1 perk for me: enough schedule flexibility that I can ensure I can have some outdoor time during daylight hours every day, even in winter.
I work in Germany where direct access to natural sunlight is part of our OH&S policies.
