Hi I did enjoy it as well, although I wondered about the implication that number of different types of rods NECESSARILY translated into richness of colour experience. Is it not possible that humans with only 3 types could have a richer colour repertoire because of combined activation from multiple rods as opposed to organisms with more rods but non-combinatorial connections to the brain?
