Neat but still hard for me (red/green) to differentiate colors between some. The Merge + Tubulin one in particular.

Why does this single headline use two different spellings for the word colo(u)r?

Because the author is making a reference to a song with the title "Colorblind", as explained in the footnote:

> The post title comes from “Colorblind” by Super Furry Animals, a B-side to their Do Or Die single.

Can a colorblind person remap colors on their own screen?

We can, yes. But then everything looks weird. :)

Yeah, some non-colorblind people mistakenly think we can "fix" it by mapping trouble colors to different colors because they fundamentally misunderstand that we always see like this.
