Ballet on Panorama

Body text at this size
And the smaller size most interfaces actually use for paragraphs — the size that decides whether a pair is usable.
Caption text, which almost nothing passes.
WCAG 2.1
3.61:1
Large text only
Not AAA (7:1). Swapping the two colours gives the same number — the ratio does not know which is the text.
APCA
Lc -57.2
Clears Lc 45 — large or heavy display text.
Light text on a darker ground — the negative sign is the polarity.
Colour difference
ΔE00 53.4
different colours
Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.
What the text colour has to become
#fff2f2 is the nearest colour of the same hue that passes AA on #327a88, at 4.50:1. Only the lightness moved, and some chroma was given up to stay inside sRGB — which is the point: your colour stays recognisably your colour.
And to someone missing a cone
protanopia
Ratio 3.21:1, ΔE00 31.8.
deuteranopia
Ratio 3.85:1, ΔE00 39.6.
tritanopia
Ratio 3.77:1, ΔE00 79.2.
The weakest of the three is protanopia, where the two are ΔE00 31.8 apart against 53.4 for a trichromat — still clearly two colours.
