This is a whole different problem, one that I cannot reproduce. For
me, customize-themes works as documented: I can enable and disable any
theme I want, and it works as I'd expect, including changes in colors.
However, you didn't tell how you used customize-themes, and what
didn't work there, so I don't think we are talking about the same
thing.
So I don't think I understand your problem, and if the only reason for
customizing faces on a TTY frame was that customize-themes didn't work
for you, we should talk about the latter, and you should begin with
describing how customize-themes doesn't work for you.

It's not a bug, it's a cockpit error: you yourself did something that
has this effect, and you did it globally. Customize is limited to
changing faces globally, on all frames, existing and future ones; if
that's not what you want, don't use Customize.
