We have technical specialists at my company who developed a great visualization interface for our product. Everyone who has seen it is really impressed. They ask why we can't have nice visualization tools like this built-in. The main engineering team won't adopt the solution because the graphs are red/green instead of gradients of blue. The technical specialists believe we shouldn't make the blue gradient the default, and instead believe that because color blind people are a minority, a mode that works for them should be a later add-on. I understand where they are coming from, but personally, I think it would be great to have the out-of-the-box UI be useful for colorblind people. The weird thing is, the two teams have had this difference for several months now, and haven't done anything about it. Unfortunately, it just seems like the most talented developers are just apathetic towards this. Almost like the brain space our design team devotes to ADA compatibility is in th specialists mind devoted to actually making something useful. It's an odd dynamic.
