Aren't something like 1 in 20 or so people color blind? I'd hardly consider that as an edge case. That's roughly the odds of being over 6ft tall in the US.
You might not know this based on your response, but almost 10% of men are colorblind.
This is ignorant and wrong. You are assuming that colorblind-friendly palettes are worse than others, but that isn't the case. In my experience, colorblind-friendly palettes actually tend to be nicer looking.
It's not wrongthink, but you might just be a jerk.
Finding that you can set up a colour range that is better for the people who can see all the colours is inevitable; but the implication is that you will now have to decide between "best" and "inclusive".
