It would help if we knew what the process for mixing Dust was. I'm not sure that using/triggering multiple colors of Dust at once will mix them, since Ruby sneezing on a cloud of red, blue, and yellow Dust only caused their individual properties rather than a new combined property.

Plus, if mixing Dust was as simple as using/triggering two or more colors at the same time, companies like the SDC probably wouldn't be able to sell other colors of Dust. In fact, other colors probably wouldn't exist, come to think of it. So, maybe mixing Dust requires an actual chemical process that can be done in a lab or something.

We also don't know if mixing two types of Dust will result in the color you get from mixing those two colors or if it could result in a completely different unrelated color, much like what happens in real life chemical reactions. We don't know if mixing red Dust and blue Dust will result in purple Dust, y'know? And we don't know if mixing two colors with certain effects will result in Dust with an effect that makes sense in relation to the two that were mixed or not.

If brighter shades are just enhanced versions, that would be kind of interesting and could help with figuring out orange Dust. If not, then that means there can be very, very many variations of Dust with many, many different effects.
