Not AAA (7:1). Swapping the two colours gives the same number — the ratio does not know which is the text.
APCA
Lc 39.0
Clears Lc 30 — the floor: below this the draft considers text not readable at any size.
Dark text on a lighter ground.
Colour difference
ΔE00 38.8
different colours
Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.
Nothing to fix
This pair already clears 4.5:1, so #480656 can stay exactly as it is. Check another pair.
And to someone missing a cone
protanopia
Ratio 4.94:1, ΔE00 38.9.
deuteranopia
Ratio 4.36:1, ΔE00 36.1.
tritanopia
Ratio 4.07:1, ΔE00 45.3.
The weakest of the three is deuteranopia, where the two are ΔE00 36.1 apart against 38.8 for a trichromat — still clearly two colours.
