Thanks!
I asked the editor if they agree and will update the graphics if they do.
They have started including and promoting the universal colorblind aid from ColorAdd as described here:

It would be really cool and helpful if more BGA games would all adopt the same system.
I find it hard to see the special markers which indicate the leader meeples. I think the leader meeples should be made 30% bigger than the normal scrappers.
The shape difference of the meeples between the factions is too slight to notice. Ultimately the colors should be more distinct.
Thanks for working on this great game!
Whether that means faction colors should change to existing BGA player colors, or alternatively BGA player colors can change to match existing faction colors is not as important as ensuring they match.
To even further complicate the issue is that faction unit meeple colors are not the same as the faction token colors. IMO all three (BGA player color, faction token color, meeple color) really should match, even if that means some game icon changes which would make it different to the physical game. What works well in real life does not necesarily work well on a computer screen.
In summary: colors should match, be easily distinguishable, and accessible for visually impaired people.
And who tf thought it would be a good idea to put the drones COVERING the scrappers?
Also, sort order! Why the hell is it [Leader A], [Leader B], {Scrappers A}, {Scrappers B}
