Good ol' CNN post-purchase. Chasing racism and sensationalism over actual news...

White is an excellent color for a complicated robot. Marks aren't hidden. It's not taking light away when looking in at hardware, it doesn't shade surroundings as much, and it matches every other damn piece of scientific equipment they throw in to labs, too.

Color neutral and bright has utility purpose. CNN is too stupid and dishonest to know that.

To be fair it wasn't CNN doing this groundbreaking "research".
