They said that with some uniform colors not being "typical" (red, blue, black white) it was easier than saying Purple, Magenta or any of the other 118 colors in the Crayola box.
I've stolen that little mechanic and have not had any negative feedback. But like always see what your assignors WANT and go from there.

When there is a scramble for a lose ball in the middle third of the court, what way does "Stay Here" indicate?
Stick with the colors. I don't think I've said a wrong color more then once every few years....(when I meant the other color, not getting the call wrong.)
I've pointed the wrong way far more often than saying the wrong color....not a common thing, but relatively speaking.
