Both slots held #026fde, so strings and numbers rendered in one color
and syntax highlighting lost the distinction entirely. It mattered less
when the theme shipped its own nvim and vscode files; now that both
generate from this palette, the collision is visible everywhere.
The green slot takes a violet. Lupine's hues sit at 210, 214, 224, 267
and 301, leaving one real gap between blue and magenta, and that gap is
the only place a new color fits without either crowding an existing hue
or breaking the blues-and-purples character. Its bright variant becomes
a lavender, which suits a theme named for the flower. Nothing here reads
as green; the slot keeps its ANSI name, not its usual hue.
Yellow, orange and cyan remain close to each other. Pulling those apart
means either warm hues or a wider spread than the theme allows, which is
a bigger change than this one.
