How is Peterlee Purples short-sighted?

The X6, 62/62A, 201, 206, 209/210 and 239 all serve Peterlee.

The routes which don’t serve Peterlee - the 59 and 204/204A - aren’t branded as Peterlee Purples.

The Peterlee Purples are the local buses which offer connections in and around the Peterlee area, either locally within the town or to places further afield (Seaham, Sunderland, etc).

Go North East received criticism for having too many ‘little’ named brands, after Little Coasters and Little Pinks, now seemingly it seems Little Purples, Lilacs or Violets would be preferable?
