Re: [csswg-drafts] [mediaqueries-5] Media query to prefer shapes over colours (#7406)

It is generally bad practice to rely on colors alone to convey meaning, even for people without disabilities.
If someone knows that, they probably always add shapes and/or text and won't have a need for such a media feature. And for authors, for which accessibility is an afterthought, a media feature like that probably won't be used.
So, while I myself have a red-green deficiency, I question whether that media feature would be used much.

Anyway, if we want to introduce a new media feature for this, here are some suggestions:

- `prefers-non-color-communication`
- `prefers-information-over-color`
- `prefers-non-color-information`
- `prefers-clarity-over-color`
- `prefers-accessible-information`
