Rule(s) of Thumb:
If the color slots affect the same genes, make them different to keep from blobbing.
If the trait slots overlap, make the colors different to keep from blobbing.
If two colors are never on the same gene but fill the same role, match them.
The Clown Palette doesn't need to be in this order!
Avoid using greyscale and brown if possible as they can be hard to differentiate.
Swap around the colors in the different slots if you
can't tell which one is contributing to x feature / trait!
