I don't doubt it. But that's also why we tend towards a single color now--we understand more about how the brain works now. Including that the more information that gets fed into a human brain, the less it is able to properly handle tasks that should be routine. That's why camouflage works, road signs are as simple as possible, and using the blink tag on the internet can get you attacked by layout nazis.
