Likewise - i have played an om35 martin before and the one i played certainly did not sound dark to my recollection at all.

Personally, I do think the nature of the OM/000 body style is more accommodating to a darker tone than a dread, but the standout quality I noticed in the one OM-35 I played was how balanced the tone felt.
That said, I still think the full scale adds a punch to the tone that articulates the treble more than sub-25" scale acoustics.
