Ball Color Problem

Here is a minor thing that I'm hoping FIRST can maybe change.

While I was looking at the manual, my wife asked me what the difference was between the moon rocks and the empty cells. She is slightly color blind and cannot at all distinguish between the blue and the purple on those balls.

Obviously this is a bit of a problem from a spectator standpoint (for those unfortunate to have some degree of color blindness), but I really feel for drivers and coaches that may have this problem.

My wife suggests a red/blue ball rather than the orange purple. She says she can see the difference between the orange and red, but not the blue and purple.

Anyway, just a minor issue.
