The coloring is a property of concurrency safety and whether the language enforces it.

For instance, if you resolve a future in the wrong context you'll still have problems - the coloring is just a compile time error that you are doing things wrong, rather than a runtime deadlock.

Right, and a lot of people would rather avoid that issue altogether by using a different concurrency model.
