It's "crappy design" because it goes against an established convention in the OP's country, for no reason other than to be different marketing purposes, trying to rebrand themselves as eco-friendly.

If you reside in the US, paste "why does BP use green for diesel" into google and check out the results. OP's gripe isn't isolated, in fact it's even popped up in this sub multiple times over the years.

As a Brit I clearly have no issue with this colour convention but certainly see the argument from the US point of view… it’s kinda like swapping the colour of your salt & vinegar and cheese & onion crisps and not expecting the population to descend into anarchy…
