Swapped my dark gray body text for a softer charcoal on patient handouts

I was using #333333 on white background and the charge nurse said some older folks were struggling with it, so I bumped it up to #1A1A1A and suddenly everyone could read it without squinting. Has anyone else tweaked a shade just slightly and seen that big of a difference?

A whole point of difference made old folks go from squinting to reading comfortably? That's insane, I figured you'd have to jump a few shades to get that kind of result. Guess tiny details really do matter way more than I ever gave them credit for.
