The default blue of #007bff is often on white backgrounds. In this case the contrast ration is about 3.97. This means that it is considered inaccessible based on the W3C WCAG standard. Update to be a slightly darker blue by default, thus making the design more accessible without further customizing.

Makes sense to me - I think we want to keep the defaults a11y-friendly so I'll merge this one
