Ironically, my complaint about the article was that the author apparently only uses typical human vision ranges here, rather than mapping 00..FFh onto an OKlab gradient of hue 0..359° that rewards those few of us with impeccable color fidelity with even better highlighting than most can see :) No doubt there’s value in contentful highlighting but I’d rather just have a straight hue translation on the circle at a fixed luminosity. There’s only 256 hues to discern, after all! And what a pleasure it would be to learn to read hex code by hue alone :D
