And you can't know what other people are experiencing or whether they are experiencing anything.?? But you can test whether people can distinguish yellow from blue and red from green. And in fact you claimed that people could be red/green colorblind (even though you don't know what they're experiencing) but they couldn't be yellow/blue colorblind. But exactly the same kind of test works for both.

    Blue-yellow

    color blindness is rarer than red-green color blindness.
    Blue-cone (tritan) photopigments are either missing or have limited
    function.

    Tritanomaly: People with tritanomaly have functionally limited
    blue cone
    cells. Blue appears greener and it can be difficult to tell yellow
    and
    red from pink. Tritanomaly is extremely rare. It is an autosomal
    dominant disorder affecting males and females equally.
    Tritanopia: People with tritanopia, also known as blue-yellow color
    blindness, lack blue cone cells. Blue appears green and yellow
    appears
    violet or light grey. Tritanopia is an extremely rare autosomal
    recessive disorder affecting males and females equally.
