This modification does, in fact, drop the idea of a secondary color
completely.
I do think there's plenty of debate, long-term, to be had around how
individual subprojects are branded. But the imperative was to nail down
this first logo, and the prospect of maintaining a complex color palette
for all the colors of the rainbow simply didn't seem practical in the end.
