It seems evident that the wifi installers didn't "get the memo" about services using a uniform color - but then again, who knows if such a directive applied to wifi infrastructure would have existed. We might see all these APs and Ethernet runs as clear evidence of a new category of infrastructure in the building, and thus deserving of a new color, but others might simply see it as another piece of electrical gear, and yet others might not care at all. Without a control mechanism like a Benevolent Dictator or a pre-agreed standard, it's open season. You also have the opposite problem of proliferation. Suppose you mandated Ethernet = white, what do you do when you introduce wifi? create a new color? overload Ethernet? what if you introduce private LTE/5G? is that also white? So you start to get into questions of types, and conversions between types, and again, without a control mechanism to think about these things ahead of time, you have a mess.
