I would assume that the theme of the terminal is setup so that
all colors (except white and black) work together with the
background color of the theme.
Actually, I was thinking about that too. In fact, what if a user
is using a "classic" dark-background theme on macOS's terminal?
Or another terminal which by default uses a dark background, like
the one mentioned above? He would get all the colors and the text
contrast messed up if I put a different color scheme for macOS
only. The only valid option would be to check the background
color of the terminal, but I don't think that's possible at all
in a standardized way, unless someone can prove me wrong. That
would be cool.
