Interesting that there is confirmation that colour blindness may not be recognised by one (or several) who have the condition! However, since the phenomenon is variable in degree and the colours not distiguished, where would the line be drawn? In any case, isn't colour just one aspect of the the many judging criteria rather than "all important"? And with a possible 20% of males having the condition what would be the chances of an entire judging team (50-50 male/female?)having the condition?  Should judges undergo a test? Maybe short sightedness or long sight should be included too . . . and, of course, no photochromic or tinted spectacles. And would they be permitted to create hybrids . . . and on and on . . . .  Have there been any problems so far?
