I don't think "I opened foo.sieve in Emacs 20 twenty years ago, and
now I opened foo.sieve in Emacs 30 today, and the colors aren't identical, and now
I'm mad"
is a good argument for never changing the defaults.
From my POV, it _is_ a good argument. Especially when the defaults
change in a feature that is easily customizable, and so basically you
are asking to impose your preferences, which are easily catered to by
your local customizations, on everyone else.
