That seems like it's more complicated than it's worth. I'm inclined to agree, but it's a pretty common idea in video games. It makes it easy to tell exactly whom you're working with, even if more than one player wants Ruby. You might play Ruby differently than you would play, say, Weiss; so since the moves would be the same, it's important to be able to see easily that it's Ruby and not Weiss so you don't get your combos confused.
