Taylornate's comment:

That makes absolutely no sense because if someone cannot distinguish red/green 
then they are not going to arbitrarily associate the resulting color to mean 
"remove".  In fact, if they can differentiate at all between green/yellow, then 
they will be used to green meaning "add" just like the rest of the population.
