Bump since Blue Is Cold TLP is depending on this?

^ - How about Color-Coded Elements in general?

... How do you use Color-Coded Elements in conjunction with its subtropes?

I suppose if more than one of its subtropes are used, together, it counts, as well as if there's a color coding system anyway, even if it doesn't follow the subtropes.

Bump 'cause no conclusion.

^^ - So, perhaps Water Is Blue and Fire Is Red should have example lists?

^ No, we definitely don't need to list every time fire and water are associated with red and blue. It'd be better to list aversions for those.

The other elements don't have such universally adopted connections, so they don't belong on the Omnipresent Tropes list.

So, I'll wait a bit, and if there's no objections, both Fire Is Red and Water Is Blue are going on the Omnipresent Tropes list.

Actually, no, I'm not confident in that assessment.
