Is there empirical research that corroborates the claim that a particular theme, mathematically symmetric or not, reliably improves productivity? Or are those claims directed more at the accompanying book and less about the theme itself?

It uses a physical model of color, not a perceptual model, and it ignores ambient light color, so it's already clearly missing the boat on scientific colors.

The example it a vomit of color where punctuated, tags, and content all scream for attention with equally loud voices.
