Comic sans black on white is more readable than most copy produced in modern web products.

Designers love grey on grey. I’ll take comic sans any day.

Font and font contrast are entirely orthogonal.

Are they? Font contrast is a multifaceted concept that encompasses not only color but other properties as well. For instance, stroke weight and its modulation, which are inherent to a typeface.

Can you give a visual example where they're not? (other than anti-aliasing round the edges)
