Migraine sufferer here ( though mine caused by bright sunlight and other factors, not the blue loading screen). They are very painful when they hit, and are often preceded by visual side effects/warning signs such as flashing lights/lines across your eyes, and partial vision loss. These symptoms (for obvious reasons) prevent you from doing things like driving and operating machinery, and can be quite scary for first-time migraine sufferers. I've heard the term 'bad headache' used to describe them, and it's a bit more than that, so hopefully I have cleared some things up for those of you who believe people are complaining over nothing.
Apart from migraines, there were also comments on twitter saying the blue triggered epilepsy warning signs. That is a serious concern, and imo, absolutely precedes any visual preference you have for the loading screen. I'm very glad the sims team is changing the screen, and am in strong agreement with removing the light blue screen entirely, as if it is set by preference, there's always the risk of the affected seeing someone's screen/stream/let's play accidentally and unexpectedly. On a personal note, I'm a bit shocked by the lack of empathy I've seen regarding this topic, and would like to re-iterate that changing the loading screen is not for personal preference, it's a health issue.
