If the original was offensive it should have been left offensive. The translation team should fuck right off with that nonsense. In addition you seem to fail to understand why even normal EMIYA's skin is darker than Shirou. The basis of the idea is that the "burning of thaumturgy" causes his skin to darken, and since EMIYA Alter did it not only stronger but even harsher conditions, this of course lends to the idea of his body getting even more "burnt". This is further accentuated by the fact his ascension has his actual origin breaking down in response to being summoned as reverts from this "harshly forged' personality, causes his spirit origin to crack. He's not darker cause he's "evil", quite the opposite, the story explanation is he was such a good guy he basically half-freed himself from mind control to kill who was mind-controlling him but this left him mentally and physically shattered.
