Forcing colors on drop-down choices is too much. It creates an eye sore if you're using a lot of choices and can create visual chaos. We have been using icons with our text to make it a visually appealing, quick read view. I don't know when this change went into effect to where it forces colors, but it's horrible. It's preventing me from wanting to create any new custom drop-downs, and our users use dark or light dependent on their personal preference, so I really prefer to have the option for no color. Also, how do all these colors impact individuals with color blindness? I just think this is such a bad design to not offer no color as an option. 😕
