Same. I started off on my aging LCD monitor and immediately noticed cases where I could just tilt my head a little and spot an obvious difference. Once I moved the window to my OLED laptop screen, it seemed to matter a lot less, though.
On the fediverse people noted that MacBook screens helped.
From my experience I can say that some hues are harder for me to tell apart. Maybe I have some slight color “blindness” or rather different sensitivity in different parts of the spectrum. So it might be not only absolute distance between colors but also where on the spectrum they are.
We humans absolutely do have varying sensitivity across the spectrum -- we're generally much more sensitive to green, for instance, which is why some screens have more green subpixels than red or blue.
To be honest, my screen isn't amazing and I do wonder how much inaccurate colours or viewing angles matter, as my screens colours can change quite a lot as I move my head around. My strategy was physically scanning my ahead across the screen, trying to use every patch of eyeball and monitor angle.
This sounds overly complicated but maybe I'm missing something. I'd have reasoned that 24-bit RGB has three channels spanning [0,255] so any colour representation with three channels spanning more than 2.4 figures per channel contains excess precision.
In other words, uniquely identifying a 24 bit colour requires about 24 bits of information, regardless of our choice of coordinates. Authors "perceptual limit" is a 20.5 bit representation, which seems reasonable -- I can't perfectly discriminate colours in 24 it RGB anyway.
This author's end goal is CSS minification, so 3dp is the best you can do to achieve "2.4 figures per channel".
OKLAB/OKLCH are perceptually uniform, which almost certainly means they are nonlinear in sRGB. This means we need a bit of excess precision in the former to actually map to all the values in the latter. Maybe not a whole 3dp (haven't done the math so idk, author probably has tho) but again see point (1).

I got 0.039 using my Thinkpad, which does not have the best screen. Noticed that angle of vision surely makes a difference.

I scored 0.0041, because it was impossible to tell difference at
0.0032for me. I wonder if my eyesight or the display is to blame?pointlessone | 5 hours ago

Funnily enough I had a lot of trouble in the "olive" territory.

Olives are ok; I think they can be a little overpowering sometimes. Always like a good olive tapenade, though.
