If an aircraft is certified through the LSA process instead of the more

The POH, and probably a panel placard, will say "VFR only".

Is it a violation to operate an aircraft in violation of the POH?

LSAs can be night & IFR equipped, and if so, then a properly rated pilot can fly it IMC at night...
