The label being grayed out is important. The outline being closer to white also helps a lot, but as you said, when it's alone the outline change is not enough. I think the gray fill is still a little dark, maybe use #f5f5f5 if you can swing it, but B is getting close.

I made a few of variations to compare. I think B works the best because it doesn't look like you can do anything about it. I greyed the text out, just like what happens to disabled buttons. 

If A and C stood alone without the standard checkbox, they may not be as clear that they're disabled. Is there a reason we're using lightgrey instead of actual value?

This is what it looks like when the checkbox uses #ddd instead of "lightgrey" and the surrounding .mw-ui-checkbox div is 50% transparent.

Maybe it's just me, but the new disabled checkbox doesn't look disabled to me:

The normal convention for making a form element disabled is to make it faded out (<100% opacity), not giving it a gray fill.

I have no idea where this design came from or who is responsible for it, but I was wondering if the design team could revisit it.

Thanks!
