You see between 20 and 32 color nuances: you are a trichromat, you have 3 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green and red area). You enjoy different colors as you can appreciate them. 50% of the population is trichromat.
You see between 33 and 39 colors: you are a tetrachromat, like bees, and have 4 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green, red plus yellow area). You are irritated by yellow, so this color will be nowhere to be found in your wardrobe. 25% of the population is tetrachromat.
I counted three times on three different screens, and there are exactly 40 colors. Idk where they're getting that there are only 39. I also don't understand the idea of being irritated by yellow. I love yellow! And "there is no yellow in your wardrobe" feels like a very silly thing to say. Yellow and its handsome cousin saffron are often on the palette of floral prints, which more people would wear if they weren't cowards. Also let me introduce you to one of my favorite t-shirts (here), which is 100% OSHA certified.
