That’s not what the article is saying though? It doesn’t say the Greeks thought the sea was red, it says they didn’t have (or at least rarely used) a word for what color it is, so they only described it by its other attributes (like how dark it was).
Many companies take this approach and it always leaves me feeling unsettled. How can we have confidence in moderation that isn’t transparent?
