 Color names were introduced in Gutenberg in
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/pull/5273 to address accessibility
 concerns and provide better information to users about the colors. See
 https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/2699

 Previously, colors were identified by their hexadecimal value. That wasn't
 helpful. By providing a human-friendly name (as many desktop applications
 do) all users can immediately understand what the color is.

 However, Twenty Nineteen uses a couple names that don't help so much:
 "Primary" and "Secondary" are terms for designers, and don't help users to
 understand what the color is:

 Also, screen reader users won't have a clue "Primary" is a blue and
 "Secondary" is a dark blue.

 Bundled themes should showcase best practices and these color names should
 be changed to human-friendly names able to inform users about what the
 actual color is.
