They may live underground - but they don't live in dark, bare tunnels. They live in vast halls lit by torches and hearths. They are no more likely to find themselves in eternal darkness than your average office cubicle worker.
Low-light vision is the norm, darkvision should be rare and restricted to those races that never leave the dark.
In fact - I'd say that darkvision and light sensitivity should be tighly connected, if not explicitely two sides of the same coin.

Its similar in fact and even better as Infravision has a range while Lowlight Vision doesn't, only distance away from light.
So Dwarves treat darkness as shadows and can see in shadows for all practical purposes.

I could get behind that.

Well - that's good. Since that is how the rules currently work.

Waaaaait a sec. I read Low-Light as having a radius of 30', centered on the player:
Low-Light Vision: If there is no light within 30 feet of you, you treat shadows in that radius as normal light, and you treat darkness in that radius as shadows.
So everything outside of 30' would be as normal vision dictates. Right?

Outsie that radius they should treat darkness as darkness.

I've always imagined that Dwarves would be fairly near-sighted, since they never have to focus at a distance beyond which they've lit with torches and lamps.
That's just me, though.
The metagame is not the game.
