51 failures on one page is a redesign. I was about to write it up as one.
Then I looked at the instrument instead of the site. Our CSS uses lab() colour values. My script pulled the numbers out of the string and treated them as red, green and blue. Every ratio it produced was fiction.
Redone properly, painting each colour onto a canvas and reading the pixel back so the colour space is handled for me: 355 text nodes, 7 failures. Six of the seven are the same Tailwind token, gray-500, landing at 4.17 against the 4.5 floor for body text. The seventh is a badge, white on purple, at 3.96. That is one decision, not a redesign.
What bothers me is not the site. The entire difference between 51 and 7 was in my measuring instrument, and if I had not been suspicious of a number that big I would have shipped it as a finding. We are building a tool whose whole job is to tell people what is broken on their site. If the instrument is wrong they have no way to know, because checking it themselves is the thing they came to us to avoid.
