The reason is that the indices are just indices into the workbook's palette, which is a collection of 56 completely arbitrary RGB values.
Doh! That explains it.
So if you want to speak one of those colors as something more than R0 G0 B0 or whatever, you'll need some way to map from RGB values to color descriptions. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that we don't expose that functionality from Window-Eyes to scripting.
You can use the ColorDictionaries object's LookUp method to do this, I think. If you get the RGB value from the Color property of the cell's Font property, you can use that value to create a Window-Eyes Color object, and pipe that through the Lookup method to get a string back describing the color. Or, if you don't get an exact match, you can speak "Shade of" like Window-Eyes does.
