With a GUI, you just need to know the colour codes and names.
Time yourself creating the Sherwin-Williams Paint Colour Palette.
Which do you think people are more likely to use?
An organisation will hire somebody to construct the colour palette.
An individual that needs new palettes on a regular basis, will learn the
appropriate XML.

You're labouring under the delusion that organizations all have
budgets to do such things. There are large numbers of organizations
that only have a one or a small number of people working on documents.
And they will not want to use the savings from not having to pay for
LibreOffice to be exceeded by having to hire someone to create a palette.
1) Business Color Palette - should be already know.
If someone in the company created their logo[s], then there should be a
record of those colors. If someone created their web site, there should
be a record of those colors. How about Business Cards, Fliers,
Brochures, Banners, and any other document type, are part of the market
branding. Many times the colors in their palette are already
documented, or at least should be.
Go to LibreOffice's Wiki page on marketing and branding. That page has
a lot information about what colors and images are proper to use. This
type of information should be part of the business's marketing documents.
2) Creating a color palette SOC file.
I am not a "good typist", but if I had a small list of colors - under 20
- including the name and color code, it could take less than 10 minutes
by using a small pre-made color palette as the template. If a person
has a sheet of instructions, it could be just as easy for them.
With the list of colors in LibreOffice's branding color list, it should
take very little time to make a new color palette file. Even with my
typing skills, it should not take even 20 or 30 minutes for the entire
process.
3) No need to hire.
SO, it does not need to hire someone to create the color palette. It
could be as easy as a 1 page instructional document, a small palette
template file, using Writer or text editor, a list of colors used, and a
good typist.
Am I laboring under the delusion, that it can be very easy to do and
does not need hired help? I do not think so.
