It’s interesting how many people assume these purple lights are some kind of new design choice. But really, it’s just a side effect of the phosphor layer breaking down in the LEDs.

Makes you appreciate how tricky it is to balance cost, lifespan, and quality when you’re manufacturing millions of these for cities.
