From that point of view, having system colours is desirable. Probably the main reason they are not used is that very few people read the specification meaning there is no demand from the people who would want them if they knew about them. If it's true that they are poorly implemented, that means that the HTML cookbooks won't include them, increasing the level of ignorance.
