That's another advantage of specifying the mask icon should be a single colour (with transparency), and using that colour as the basis for displaying it: The Pink Un can use black letters and have them actually be black, and Twitter can use a blue bird and have it actually be blue, with nobody having to add or change any existing theme-color. It's also much easier to teach ‘if you want a red house, draw a solid house in the particular share of red you want’ than ‘if you want a red house, draw it in solid black, then specify the shade of red separately in multiple files that you don't necessarily have full control over’.
