   I watched a video talking about perception of color and they had a chart where they asked to pick out the single square that was a slightly different shade of green from the others. I found it right away. It would be cool to discover I'm tetrachromatic.

     @sun pretty sure only women can be tetrachromatic? except I guess for the rare autosomal color blindness if you have both the normal and defective cone genes? hmmm

     @georgia yeah you are right, men get colorblind because a mutant cone replaces one of the normal cones but women get the mutant cone in addition to the normal three.

     @noyoushutthefuckupdad @mangeurdenuage @sun i've never heard they couldn't see it. only that many languages failed to be capable of describing it. thus resorting to odd poetry like the "wine dark skies."

     @noyoushutthefuckupdad @mangeurdenuage @sun a lot of blue stuff isn't "blue" its some weird optical shit. like water is 'blue' but you scoop it up and it has no actual color. the sky is the same thing.

     @sun 1) Spot-the-difference is highly display-dependent
     2) Tetrachromacy improving perception of a trichromatic display would only be due to incidental factors
     3) Relative strength/weakness of cones vs "normal" is a much stronger factor in picking out differences which are supposed to be subtle to "normal" eyes - it's why many forms of colourblindness make it easier

     @noyoushutthefuckupdad @mangeurdenuage This is very frustrating because he misrepresents the argument right out of the gate and then claims the origin is an artist essay in 2018. I heard about this years and years before this as an explanation of the same adjective for green and blue in Japanese. The video and a bunch of the comments treat the argument like he's saying that they literally could not see the color blue when the argument is that they didn't distinguish it as a separate color.
     
     He did mention a couple other youtube videos had already debunked the claims and I noticed one of them seemed to address the real argument so I'll watch them but this video seemed to be just usual deboonker crap before I stopped it halfway.
     
     I still admit I gave the original video too much good faith. I have noticed the Why Files might be doing a confidence trick. They rightly point out when things have been disproven in many cases but this is to build up credibility when they make positive claims that may not be justifiable. I knew they were doing this but I fell into it anyway. This is a risk you take on when you immerse yourself in these types of claims as entertainment.

     @sun @mangeurdenuage @noyoushutthefuckupdad green/blue is one of the most enigmatic linguistic oddities on the topic of color because it's about hues but russian has words for light and dark blue
     hell, no one notices because these have their own words in most languages but pink and brown are just red and orange
