Except when they’re stupid too. In the tutorial area of Horizon: Zero Dawn they have you climb a wall. The handholds are marked with white and yellow.
Except it’s evening in game and the color grading effect makes everything a shade of orange. The colors aren’t distinguishable and the shapes of handholds are still new. Took me two hours to figure it out. I knew I had to climb the wall, but where to do it and where to go on the wall was a mystery.
Poor color/contrast can be an accessibility issue. It’s why some games come with colorblind modes that adjust light and color hues, to provide an option for players who have difficulty with that.

No offense but I don’t think this is a dev problem, seeing how so many people went through it no problem and it took you two hours.
