it isn't though. you don't need cars to learn red means stop, we literally had miniature roads, crossing and signs at my pre-school (or whatever it's called in English, the one you go at age 3 till 6, you start school at 6).

Stop sign is red, pedestrian crossing are just red - stop, green - go. you learn that from a very young age so the association is natural.

Also, just to be clear, I didn't say redlist is good, just that it's less stupid than blacklist.

Fair, the idea of "going" will be there and hopefully, likely its symbols will stay relivant.

How is blacklist stupid? Green and red aren't natural, in fact black/white makes more sense because it represents a binary choice (true/false, off/on).
