Today I just noticed a change in the Dark Protanopia & Deuteranopia theme. It seems like open issues and PRs have turned blue. Merged and closed issues and PRs have always been purple (I think). With the open ones being blue, now open and closed appear to be the same color to me.

Confirmed, this update makes the icons especially difficult to distinguish by color:

Hi! The colorblind modes are great, however you folks recently changed it so that (to me, someone with protanopia) the colors for the Open and Merged badges in PRs are essentially the same colour. This has tripped me up many times this week since the change landed, thinking open PRs had already been merged. Please revert this as it's horrible.

Hello all - when you can, please clear your cache and retest the colorblind themes. The fix for the reversion should be in place now!
