Caption text, which almost nothing passes.

WCAG 2.1

10.08:1

Passes AA for body text

AAA too. Swapping the two colours gives the same number — the ratio does not know which is the text.

APCA

Lc -81.4

Clears Lc 75 — body text at a normal size and weight.

Light text on a darker ground — the negative sign is the polarity.

Colour difference

ΔE00 68.1

different colours

Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.

Ratio 9.79:1, ΔE00 67.2.

deuteranopia

Body text

Ratio 10.22:1, ΔE00 67.6.

tritanopia

Body text

Ratio 10.28:1, ΔE00 70.4.

The weakest of the three is protanopia, where the two are ΔE00 67.2 apart against 68.1 for a trichromat — still clearly two colours.
