I noticed that too.
The stricture “get it right in black and white” would help, but color-blind folks map colors to lightnesses differently. A color-blind co-worker believed yellow on white was perfectly legible, but a scatterplot with red and blue was indecipherable.
Do color blind folks have any tools, like browser plugins, to remap images?
