This, or something like, must be the explanation. The silver iodide-bromide
layer is far too thin for an interference effect. It might also be a
plasmon-polaritron effect which one might argue is the same thing.

I don't remember reading anything about that. But in my personal experience,

This effect was studied extensively thoughout the 19th and early 20th
centuries, but in another field. Early researchers in photography noted the
same effect and more in their experiments with Daguerrotype plates. A purposely
over-exposed plate would turn very dark. If the plate was covered
