I get what you mean, but you're not adding much to the discussion. I think of a few reasons you'd want to disable color that aren't for pure aesthetics: - Visually impaired users might have trouble with a lot of colors - Fully blind users won't see the color, so if it ties into a core feature of the tool, a NO_COLOR flag would force the developer to address it. For the record, I think the article OP linked to is pretty stupid in general, but I like playing devils advocate.
