Caption text, which almost nothing passes.
WCAG 2.1
4.58:1
Passes AA for body text
Not AAA (7:1). Swapping the two colours gives the same number — the ratio does not know which is the text.
APCA
Lc -50.1
Clears Lc 45 — large or heavy display text.
Light text on a darker ground — the negative sign is the polarity.
Colour difference
ΔE00 46.8
different colours
Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.
Nothing to fix
This pair already clears 4.5:1, so #c0b0d0 can stay exactly as it is. Check another pair.
And to someone missing a cone
protanopia
Ratio 5.01:1, ΔE00 49.1.
deuteranopia
Ratio 4.38:1, ΔE00 44.4.
tritanopia
Ratio 4.37:1, ΔE00 43.3.
The weakest of the three is tritanopia, where the two are ΔE00 43.3 apart against 46.8 for a trichromat — still clearly two colours.
