Go to the Sandbox of this Provision

Proposed text in Oct 26 draft:
Products must provide at least one mode that allows access to all functionality of the product for people with color vision deficits.


Comments from Sun
This language is not testable, and in fact doesn't map well to existing technical standards (see the text in 3-A – Color, which states things much more clearly, and also 3-B - Contrast). So long as the Functional Performance Criteria aren't considered testable, this language isn't a large problem; but still this is already much better stated in 3-A and 3-B, and it would be better to eliminate this provision.
