These are definitely not "semantic" diffs on the original source code (in this case, OpenSCAD barf language). When people say that visual diff is hard, they are usually referring to the semantic aspects, not so much the problem of coloring

Well, yes, I do like to read more than that. But I am not selling myself off as an expert on nutrition or whatever? I'd rather find someone who reads more, so that I can avoid the garbage.
