BrickColors with the same name not equal

[1waffle1 (Waffle)]

This elusive bug has been bothering me and I just figured out how to reproduce it.

local a = BrickColor.new("Deep orange")
local b = BrickColor.new(BrickColor.new("Deep orange").Color)
print(a, b, a == b)

they are the same color
but no

hold on, this thread just popped up

BrickColor.palette "Deep orange" bugs

print( BrickColor.new(‘Deep orange’).Number ) --> 1005 print( BrickColor.palette(42).Number, BrickColor.palette(42).Name ) --> 1017 Deep orange –using the studio property window’s color palette and changing Part’s brick color to Deep orange: print(workspace.Part.BrickColor.Number) --> 1005 Conclusion: BrickColor.palette returns a borked list. All the other colors are fine except this mysterious “Deep orange” twin that is breaking a couple palette scripts, and I was stumped for a bit on this. …

adding print(a.Number, b.Number) prints 1017 and 1005. they are different numbers, but they have the same name. that is bad

So it’s just Deep orange?

for i = 0, 127 do
	local a = BrickColor.palette(i)
	local b = BrickColor.new(a.Color)
	if a ~= b then
		print(i, a, b)
	end
end

looks like Rust also has the same problem. Deep orange and Rust.

Gold has a similar issue. Insert a brick and color it gold. Then compare that color to the color of the yellow domes on this steam engine: https://www.roblox.com/library/302873713/Pro-Series-Pluto-Locomotive

I have noticed a problem with gold. My color palette was the wrong color for a couple colors, Gold and I think Lilac.
