Think of it like dithering. Not all of us could afford full 24 bit color displays and had to make do with 256 or 16 colors or 8 colors instead. Sometimes the right color brick isn't there and it's better to have the odd colors spread throughout the whole thing than one brick that's off.

I lived near a Samsonite factory (they manufactured Lego in Canada) and my bricks were purchased in giant shopping bags. They were all seconds which means some parts had color problems, some were a bit melted, some were cracked, etc... Mostly they were fine and I had a lot of bricks.
