I have a client with a Green main colour brand. It always makes for an interesting discussion when I show them #dataviz style guide options that never even use Green as encoding. BI Teams are usually very hard on their use of traffic light schemes, but it doesn't *have to* be this way. 📊

The main conflict I have is that Green is used as a neutral colour in their branding material (like you'd use black or grey, for headings) and the BI team wants to make it all black instead, and adopt green in their traffic light. Folks! You can have both! Make the good/bad (gasp!) OTHER COLOURS!
