Why shouldn't it be better, both respectful of user settings, and highly legible? Web claims of "too much contrast is bad" pale in comparison to overall poor legibility. People with too bright/contrasty displays can turn back those settings. Those whose are properly set shouldn't need to do anything because of some eagle-eyed stylists' preferences, and those who need more are unable to dial up past 100%, or may already be at 100% to start with - lots of displays shipped with settings at 100% so as to stand out alongside competitors on retail display shelves in brightly lit stores (probably what caused stylists to make the too much contrast is bad claim in the first place). #439539 openSUSE green for link text is bad: http://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/ So are gray text and sub-default text size: http://www.w3.org/2003/07/30-font-size http://terrillthompson.com/blog/589 https://backchannel.com/how-the-web-became-unreadable-a781ddc711b6 https://jebswebs.net/blog/2013/07/whats-with-all-the-gray/ http://contrastrebellion.com/ https://www.sitepoint.com/community/t/why-are-so-many-sites-using-gray-text/4667 -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
