Description

I came across this analysis and the selected colors had very low contrast to each other. In general we should also be careful to pick colors which are colorblind safe (we could use colorbrewer as reference point?).

Compare candidate palettes with the linked ColorBrewer reference, checking contrast and colorblind safety. Done means generated plots use clearly distinguishable, colorblind-safe colors.
