Sail color

This seems trivial I know, but I'm wondering why practically everyone opts for the tanbark sails instead of cream or white. To me, a boat with sails is one of the most beautiful sights on the water, but white or off-white is much prettier than a dark brownish-red. I can't find any precedent for that color either, except possibly some native-built craft in various parts of the world. This is obviously a matter of personal taste--just wondering if I am the only one who sees it that way--no big deal either way, just trying to make a decision.
