I think that's why, and same with the red hammer-a hammer is the first tool most people think of just because it's the one they're most familiar with, which would explain why FIRSTers may think of something different, as we typically work with just about any tool you can think of. As for the red, lots of people like the color red and it's a nice easy color to think of. Then again so is blue, which is why lots of people said blue.
