Would you not be reprimanded for white text on a cyan background? That is the alternative on iMessage. The bubble is not blue. Edit: to be fair the text is also not "white"
The approximate (sRGB) color codes are:
"green" #39ff5a (57,255,90)
"white" #fdfdfd (253,253,253)
"grey" #d8d8d8 (216,216,216)
"blue grey" #aeb9cc (174,185,204)
"blue" #218aff (33,138,255)
All the contrasts are terrible, but clearly a marketing decision.https://coolors.co/contrast-checker/fdfdfd-218aff |

> "green" #39ff5a (57,255,90) ...
This list of colors is both inaccurate and very inaccurate.
In fact, there is not one single green (or blue) color in iMessage, and anyone who says there is is mistaken.
1. The bubble colors show in a gradient from the bottom of the screen (newer messages have more contrast) to the top of the screen (older messages have less contrast). The standard green at the bottom for the newest message is measured with the macOS built-in digital color meter from a screenshot taken on my iPhone is [51,199,89]. The standard green at the top is [56,228,100].
2. The OP is just being foolish on the internet. Enabling the increased contrast accessibility mode in iOS settings turns the green at the bottom into a dark forest which very easily passes for anyone who actually needs it and isn't just talking out of their ass on the internet to bash iPhones without having used one.
> to be fair the text is also not "white"
macOS digital color meter says the text is white [255,255,255].
