You know, I saw Chad's list of colours and thought "There's no way I could remember all those!" I actually had a set of 5-7 that I was using but I found it led to too much cognitive overhead "Is blue salvation or sin? Is this point more about grace or love?" A three colour system like this seems far more manageable (And you can always chuck one more in if there's a particular topic your are investigating). Thanks for sharing.

Definitely. The smaller the number the easier it is to know why you’re highlighting something. I’ve personally never actually seen the value of a complex colour system, but I can see that a lot of people would. For me, the most useful thing is seeing the structure of a given passage.
