.0037. IIRC it is possible to get a better score by looking around the screen, your peripheral vision might be somehow more sensitive.

I can see what they mean about .02 though. If I weren’t specifically looking for difference that’s where the colors become less noticeable.

I got 0.0039. Peripheral vision helps a lot. My eyes, at least, are very differently sensitive to different colors. It's really difficult to discriminate with bright and pink like colors. Easier with darker colors.
Looking around if you have an LCD also helps compensate for colors shifting off-axis.
What youre doing is seeing changes limited to one of the R, G, B so instwad of judging integral xolors, your doing 3 different. The article explains how errors propagate, and those RGB pixels will all shift errors because of matetial science.
