Har! I had never heard it called that, but it is true to an extent. Red was the preferred color in landscapes because of the preponderance of green. Yellow was preferred in seascapes because of the blue. Green and Blue being considered neutral colors it was felt that a bit of Red or Yellow warmed the picture up and provided a bit of visual excitement. I think it had more to do with bored photographers than bored viewers.
