Region/selection background color is unlike the default region highligh in the README about emacs HOT 2 OPEN

This also appears to be an issue for me.

Environment

> echo $TERM
screen-256color

> echo $COLORTERM
truecolor

> tput colors
256

> emacs --version
GNU Emacs 26.1

Terminal Emulator: iTerm2, Build 3.2.0
Terminal Theme: Nord

Edit

Testing the color palette via list-color-display in GUI Emacs and terminal Emacs shows the the color palette is more extensive in the former. I've tried running TERM=xterm-24bit emacs -nw but the colors are quite wrong.

This PR seems related?

from emacs.

Same observed here. Environment:

$ echo $TERM
screen-256color

$ emacs --version
GNU Emacs 25.2.2                                                        

$ tput colors
256

$ echo $COLORTERM
truecolor

I have also notices that nord-comment-brightness have no effect, meaning the comment brightness never change. Nord theme is used in gnome-terminal, tmux and emacs.
