@Chish: 1) The thing about "hair color darkens with age"....is that it is not a thing in Remnant.

As far as characters that we have seen as kids go, we have seen Jaune, Nora, Ren, Whitley, Weiss, and Winter. With none of them, their hair color got any darker than it was before, lighting shenanigans aside. So if you want to insist on it, then you must explain why Saphron's hair got darker and not everyone else's.

So the argument of "hair color darkens" is null, because we can see that it just doesn't happen in Remnant. Which is to be expected, since it also doesn't happen in 99% of animated shows.

2) Regarding her name, consider this: It's just "Saphron". Because of how the CNR works, it doesn't necesarily allude to the spice specifically, or exclusively. There's also the violet flower from which that spice comes from, which is generally called Saffron Crocus.

Sure, you can argue that it'd be ridiculous since the color Saffron is still pretty orange, so naming a non-orange Arc after an orange color would be nonsensical. But we've both seen that same argument, "it would be stupid", being used for multiple other things in this show.

Of course, it could also be that there was a mistake and the artist gave the wrong colors to the wrong sisters.
