Sure, I understood thats what you meant. I meant that over the full
range of whats out there, not just considering mono cards/screens,
but much more importantly the laptops/notebooks, its not possible to
have a color scheme which is guaranteed to be visible/usable on all.

PE> Nope, I'm using a monochrome text card, lower than MDA.

Nope, aint no such animal.

Sounds like its actually MDA. What does MSD call it ?
