Can we talk about a colorblind mode again?

I know this has been brought up time and again and the response from BHVR has expressed concern over the advantage people without colorblindness could gain from it. I understand their concern, but I still feel like they never quite understood the impact of a colorblind mode.

As a colorblind gamer I feel this recent aura issue is a great parallel. People's struggles with the new auras are somewhat similar to our struggle even with the old auras. Everyone else now gets a better sense of the difficulty many of us are going through. Ormund has always been awful for me as a killer as I struggle to see far away gen auras at times. Now it's nearly impossible. I don't even think of saving downed people right now, because every killer has a free knockout for me at the moment. Half the time I only know where they are hooked because of the unmissable bubble when they are first hooked.

And that's just part of it. Scratch marks are often the bigger issue. I know they shouldn't simply act like a waypoint, but it's incredibly frustrating when they just "disappear" for me because of the surface they are on or due to some other environmental variable.

Some people say this aura change makes the game, or certain perks, unplayable, but that's just the status quo for colorblind players. The entire playerbase has been crying out over this change and BHVR has listened and it working on a fix, but can the other 10% of us get some help too?

I know BHVR is busy with a lot of other stuff and I'm in no way asking for an ETA, but I'm hoping they may better understand our frustration and can at least let us know they're going to take a look and at least get something out there for us in the near future.
