Reminds me of how we used to change the order of the wires in PC to PC connections on early RJ45 cables. What a fucking pain in the ass that was for colorblind like myself.

I had always wondered what that was like for colour blind people.

Let's just say that I didn't do too well when I wanted to become a helicopter engineer. Color coding is one of those things that are both inevitable and impossible.
