> yellow paper is used primarily for quick throw-away notes and scribbles in reality (at least here in the UK).

Is it? I know yellow is the default colour for sticky notes, but for everything else -- at school, university, work, home -- the paper is white.

Ryman stock over 500 notepads. Three have yellow paper, and are described as "Being Yellow in colour [they] may appeal to people with dyslexia as the coloured paper can aid reading and writing in people with this condition".

Pretty sure the implication is that yellow is only for sticky notes.
