Anyone else irked by the inclusion of `currentColor`? I don't see the relevance.
Good to know for instance that a bunch of stuff could be deprecated.
Surprising to see #rrggbbaa to be <1%, when #rrggbb is the most popular. If you’re already used to hex then why switch to eg rgba when you need alpha? I find it quite useful. Maybe it’s recent and less known.
If alpha support came out with hex from the beginning then it may be a different story

It simply lists all the ways in which developers specify color in css, and explicitly typing currentColor is a valid option. I use currentColor as an SVG default for instance, when icons should match text color. Good to know for instance that a bunch of stuff could be deprecated.
Can you elaborate on the deprecation part though?
I like that the demo slider is directly from one of Bartosk Ciechanowski's always excellent article [1]. He's really a reference in interactive visualization. There's a link to his article on color spaces labeled "Try it for yourself", but I would prefer a direct and clearer textual attribution to him. [1]: https://ciechanow.ski/color-spaces

Really low on the part of the authors to not even mention his name.
Are there any stats on how many people have devices that support these color spaces? Guessing you're not going to get a lot of brands picking p3 colors until it's widely supported by devices in general usage?

I feel it is easier to read/write rgba(125,125,125,0.9) compared to #7d7d7de6.
> The following color spaces offer access to larger gamuts than sRGB. The display-p3 color space offers almost twice as many colors as RGB, while Rec2020 offers almost twice as many as display-p3. That's a lot of colors! Are there any stats on how many people have devices that support these color spaces?

Also, within CSS & browsers at least, the colours gracefully degrade based on the hardware, so using p3 in a supported browser is not going to look terrible on hardware without p3 support.
