If the user had e.g. red/green colorblindness, that wouldn't help. Google's made a nice tradeoff for this application, though, and used differently-shaped icons (checkmark vs. exclamation point) as well.

Edit: looks like the icons are served as images. Google should probably consider making them text icons instead to mitigate loading problems.

FYI, Toptal makes a helpful tool for quickly checking live pages with colorblindness filters: https://www.toptal.com/designers/colorfilter/
