Nissan specifically states;
"Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2. Do not mix with other fluids.
Using transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2 will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the warranty."
Also you do not need to change the fluid until 60,000 miles. Why look for trouble by experimenting with different products?

since this is such a unique trans, unless a company has said they tested their product and it works (and will therefore warranty any damage to your car as a result) I wouldn't touch it. the OEM fluid you need is about $80 for 6 quarts you only need 5 for a drain/fill i dont think its worth the money you save for the risk you're taking personally.

Why the black font on a black background. Very hard to read.

One likely reason - He may have simply copied the dialogue from the manual, which was black letters on a white page. Just guessing.
My old eyes are very poor, but I was able to read it by use of a magnification glass. Of course I also have to use that magnification glass to read normal newsprint. My eyes have gradually lost their ability to make out small print. This started back around age 75 or so.
