Red2 (#ee0000) might be invisible to red-color blindness.
It could be too glaring still depending on taste.

The name firebrick2 hints closer to a kind of red than brown2.

The 'light green' is easier on the eye, it seems to my eye
not having exclusively one color component in the RGB is better.

That’s a rabbit hole beyond scope. I am afraid.

If only the `Hi Green B' and `Hi Red B' are adjusted, or only the `Hi Green B’

that improves the existing defaultsetting.
