In addition, since it's a visual cue and not a text string, it's memorized in a different way. You won't have to explicitly remind yourself that something's wrong; if your chroma hash has suddenly turned Red, Orange, Green instead of Blue, Green, Purple, you'll know instinctively that it looks wrong.
