Other comments:

CSS WG would like to draw your attention in particular to [the `color-contrast()` function](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-color-5/#colorcontrast) which automatically calculates the color (from a list of candidate colors) with the highest WCAG 2.1 luminance contrast. 

CSS WG is aware of the existing work to produce a better contrast metric; applauds this work, and hopes to reference it as an option in the `color-contrast()` function when consensus has formed and the calculation has stabilized. Meanwhile though, and despite the known limitations of the WCAG 2.1 luminance contrast formula, this is the one we are referencing for now.
