> having more colors makes it possible to recognize more complex patterns
The implicit cost here is that the simple patterns become harder to recognize when every byte is only subtly differently colored. Rather than give everything a different color, I'd rather have the important stuff highlighted.
In the comparisons given, I think hexyl's highlighting scheme is significantly more useful.
