That makes more sense to me than the 'safe/danger' set up...but who knows.
You are correct sir! On a plane, safe is green, danger is red/maybe orange. I have never seen blue on any of my gauges, either old school, or the new computer flat screen gauges. The blue and red/burgundy and black are to signify the change from day to night.
