Thanks for all the inventive solutions everyone.
I was rather hoping that there was an accessible-by-default feature that I had missed.
It seems that the Raspberry Pi 5 is less accessible to the UK's largest category of disability than previous models.
Red-green colour changing LEDs are the bane of my existence. One in ten British males are red-green colour blind. Red-blue or green-blue LEDs cost only a penny more in bulk, and the number of blue colour blind people is down to one-in-ten-thousand or fewer.
I hope that the original "ten flashes to confirm power down" can be restored in future models, or maybe a firmware update for the Pi 5 itself.
