Its extremely low luminance value results in poor contrast against typical light backgrounds. This makes it difficult for users with visual impairments to discern text or other fine details rendered in this color. According to WCAG guidelines, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for standard text and 3:1 for large text.
