Re: CfC: Issue 200

+1

I think a threshold value is the simplest solution for different number of
significant digits (3:1 and 4.5:1) and its consistent with what I was
thinking when I voted for those ratios 10 years ago. This is the minimum
contrast and don't make that text any lighter on a light background.

Cheers,
David MacDonald
