Ensure high contrast when placing #CD5C5C (Indian red) text on #DAA520 (goldenrod) backgrounds, as they may have insufficient contrast.
Text in #800020 or #B22222 requires a light background (e.g., cream, white) for optimal readability.
Golden hues like #DAA520 and #B8860B might appear similar to users with certain color vision deficiencies; use additional cues for differentiation.
