@Miriamm Historically, the term “red” has been used as a broad descriptor for a range of hues, including what we would now distinguish as purple. This categorization stems from a time when languages had fewer words for colors, and “red” was one of the primary color terms used.

@Webwasp @Miriamm E.g. gold used to be referred to as being colored red.
