OK, color me impressed. I was finding it remarkably interesting and then read the instruction to drag and flip it around which multiplied the whoa factor by at least 7 infinities
If light is being represented wouldn't the sum be represented as white not gray?
If you have enough of it.

I expect it's normalized?

White is just very intense gray. There's actually no such thing as "true white", in the sense that you could always make it brighter.
yes, by pointing a flashlight to your computer screen for example
Click and dragging is oddly satisfying! The graphic look and color scheme of the diagram looks really cool.
No Venn diagram will ever top the six-way Venn diagram from the banana genome paper. It is the last word in multi-way Venn diagrams.

I enjoy (3) Venn diagrams for their blissful clarity. This Venn diagram technically works, but completely fails at clarity.
This is impressive, but as others have said : it fails to clarify things. One thing that would probably help is on the "colored side" when the mouse moves from one zone to the other, it should just change the highlights that need to be changed, so we can smoothly visualize where we are. At the moment, when we do this, it first uselessly highlights everything for a second, so we "lose" the ability to visualize "what changed" precisely between the two zones.

Just use an Upset plot already.
This may or may not be a great site, I have no idea because the site doesn’t work well in mobile.
Doesn't work, Firefox Android 68.11.0.

I’m using lattice (line) diagrams to understand intersection concepts like this. They’re easy to generate from cross tables using FCA tools such as the “concepts” Python available in pip.

Love this.

> equidistant in the hue circle

but doesn't seem to be 'subjectively equidistant' as there are some green/green-blue's that are very similar and lots of unused visual separation near orange or violet.
