    As someone who deals with ergonomics as part of his job I KNOW there is a problem.

      As someone who deals with UX and the psychology of recognizing and distinguishing things, I can tell you that you know jack shit about the situation here, and working in a field close to ergonomics is evidently not the expertise you think it is.

        I did not say I work in a field close to ergonomics, I said that my work INVOLVES ergonomics. Also, pretending that someone who “deals with UX” has any serious knowledge of ergonomics, is like a chiropractic saying they are an actual medical doctor, or that a software “engineer” is anything near a real engineer.

          The problem we’re talking about is a UX one. The ability to quickly distinguish a visual sign / interface.

          And I’m both an actual electrical engineer and a software engineer, I understand the distinctions between the two very well.

          But do please cite your ergonomic data showing that rainbow crosswalks are hard to see, or you can admit that you’re just baselessly pearl clutching.

        One of the first results from googling “high contrast safety”.

        There are a bajillion more, and many actual research publications. You really could benefit from reading.

        It looks like reading AND comprehending isn’t really your thing, bless your heart.
