I thought this was going to be an article on a sort of moral equivalent to the fact that people who speak languages that don't have a different word for pink (for example)(they call it a light red) find it harder to differentiate between pink and red than we do. I think also Japanese(?) has a seperate word for light blue, and hence can differentiate between shades of blue better/easier.

Still interesting though.
