We have a storytelling trope about things being color coded to tell them apart, and seriously the best picture we can think of is a traffic light? It's a pretty weak example and doesn't show anything about its story purpose.

May I suggest Academic dress (you can tell somebody's field of study from the color) or resistors (it's literally impossible to tell them apart without the color coding) or euro bills (compare to dollar bills which are all the same color).

Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!

The current was chosen here; not really seeing a pressing need to make a change. Declining to open.
