2026-09-06 19:31:32 e86ada | Anonymous | REF106 r1: new reference page on the published thresholds governing colour and flashing, checked against the Design Document's readable-state convention (steady/flashing/dark, wet-and-dry by tint). Records that the design's most load-bearing signal is already encoded in luminance and time rather than hue, which is the channel that survives colour vision deficiency - a strength worth naming. WCAG 1.4.1 Level A forbids colour as the only visual means of conveying information, and wet/dry by tint is the one row that depends on colour alone, for a state REF101 shows is mechanically load-bearing rather than decorative; 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women have colour vision deficiency. WCAG 2.3.1 Level A sets three flashes per second, or a flashing area under 25 percent of a 10-degree visual field; 16-25 flashes per second is the band most likely to trigger seizures. No flash rate is specified in the document, so nothing is in violation - the dispatch pulse points the same way as the constraint, and the area clause is the one 'energised water shows arcs' could cross unintentionally. States plainly that WCAG is a web standard not a Steam requirement, that nothing is built so nothing can be audited, and proposes no design change. |
