I think these are just remnants of times when colors were made of something much less resistant to heat. These days it’s not a problem at all.
I’ve been mixing everything and washing at 90C, and I’ve only had problems once ever, with some green towels which made everything green. Colored clothes are perfectly fine at that temperature.
I had two mishaps a few years ago. Once A blue pant that darkened a whole load of white shirts, another time a red one. The color wore off after a few washes, but I don’t recommend it. Even if most items are fine, just one is enough to ruin a whole load of clothes.
Arent these self correcting? I would expect to make this mistake only once.
The combining factor seems to be an ignorance into how things work, and how to maintain them. At least that is my observations of flatmates..

I still have issues with bright reds, even wearable clothing. Not so much other colors.
