Too Much Color

I spent too much time looking at too many colo(u)rs to try and optimise them for csskit. Here are some interesting findings.

@keithamus "Because Oklab is "perceptually uniform" (equal distances actually correspond to equal perceptual differences, unlike CIE Lab which is... less okay about that), the numbers come out 1/100th of dE00's. So dEOk's JND is 0.02, not 2.0."

No, perceptual uniformity isn't the reason. It is just that more modern color spaces tend to use 0 .. 1 scales for everything while older ones tend use 0 .. 100

@svgeesus oh yeah this was bad editorialising. It used to say "comes out with different numbers" but I compressed the paragraph too hard and came out with wrong facts. Thanks for calling this out!
