Okay, you're right. I'm going to go sit in the corner and pray. I'm sure Apple overlooked this detail because they're just not really aware of basic attributes of one of their most widely used apps.

Again you keep deciding on intent when the easiest answer is “we chose this color and we don’t fucking care that it violated our standards because at this point we’re not changing it” which would explain why the iMessage colors also don’t meet their guidelines unless you’re implying that they are also harming iMessage users in the same way?
