Because of that, reading the initial brightness of the display is disabled by default, and when changing the brightness of a display for the first time, its initial brightness is set to 50%. You can enable reading the brightness from the display in the app's preferences, but do so at your own risk. +Additionally, it seems the HDMI port on the 2018 Mac Mini does not work with the DDC/CI interface.
