I got the purple connection based on two words but I’m not actually sure what the other two things mean!

I was convinced one of these colours was a red herring, but it was not!

Today I could easily have failed to complete the game, as was wrong about both blue AND purple. Sheer luck prevailed 😎

Fell for the red herring but solved without hints, clues, or googling. No default, either.
