Found out only 8% of men are color blind, and it flipped my whole palette workflow | Color Theory in Practice

I always assumed it was way more common, but the stat from a design accessibility guide I read last week put it at roughly 1 in 12 men. I've been testing my palettes on that 8% grain ever since instead of guessing. Does anyone here actually run a color blind simulator before shipping a site, or do you just eyeball it?
