Saturated
Deep and fully-loaded colour, jewel-toned rather than bright. Vibrant is loud; saturated is rich, and a dark saturated scheme is ordinary while a dark vibrant one is not.

- Note
- NOT authored here, and the second time this file made that claim. It was written as authored because colorscope's PaletteMood was checked and its COLOR_CHROMA_LEVELS was not - and the chroma scale is muted, soft, vivid, SATURATED. The same failure as `mid`, in the same file, found by an adversarial pass rather than by the check that should have caught it.

No external scheme has been searched for this term yet. That is the absence of a record rather than a result: where a scheme has been searched and found to carry nothing, the search, its date and its query are published here as evidence. See governance.
