For the summer, I don't agree with that at all...I think that both a pearl or smoked MOP work completely well with navy. The pearl, though, requires odd trousers.
A navy DB jacket with light MOP buttons and white flannel trousers would be wonderful.
Smoked MOP is fine with most navy cloths, agreed. I also didn't quite mean that I don't like white MOP with navy, but rather that it needs to be a luminous navy (or a lighter blue). A luminous navy is a more subtle choice than a lighter blue, in fact.
For the buttons I prefer trocas to white MOP though -- I like the yellowish shade, even though it's supposed to be an inferior, ersatz-type material.
As for the white flannel, I'm awaiting the LL order.
