I see.  Also looking at the commit I referred to in comment 0 more closely,
that's actually not the commit which introduced the cyan/magenta =>
aqua/fuchsia change, an earlier commit did that.  The commit I referred to
actually added quite a few more color names from "coral" to "snow" to UI, but
those strings are not in Weblate yet.

With these new color names added, I'm not so sure anymore.  Being consistent
with standard is also good.  And with more HTML/CSS color name added, the
translators need to find proper terms for them anyway (LO actually have an HTML
pallette right now, but the color names in it are not localized, so they are
shown as English in all UIs).

I don't use Math much myself, and this bug is just from a translator's point of
view.  I wouldn't want my personal opinion to have too much weight, and would
rather leave you the developer to decide.  If you want more opinions, we can
always ask the UX (user experience) team.
