    Interesting.

    I’m “color blind” (a misnomer). I do fine with the pH test (confirmed by my non color blind spouse), but struggle with the CH test. I have a alternate procedure for CH that you helped me with years ago that helps. Still, I just have my spouse do the CH test for me.

    When I looked at the Wikipedia article, it said the following about the second image:
