«Minority of minorities» feels accurate to me and I remember the moment of creative power when I realized that I need to take matters into my own hands. As you wrote, we can't rely on others to do things for us.
So I made a tool that tells me the name of the closest web color to whatever is under the mouse pointer. It's not perfect, but it's certainly easier than trying to discern RGB values.
I'm proud that I've turned my prototype into a polished product, available in 5 languages on the Mac App Store and with a nifty shortcut for copying colors to the clipboard. Check out the link in my bio, if you're interested. I know I'll probably get some downvotes, but I'm excited to share this with others who may find it useful.
