Should there be an 'else' here since a named color will never start with a '#' ?

No. If it is a named color, it didn't pass the conditional above, which means it is still its default value (invalid).

However, if it *is* something like "#abc" and it fails Color(colorString) then we want the next condition to execute. This is because "#fzz" is actually an ok value in HTML color attributes - it becomes rgb(15, 0, 0)!!! Yes, the whole thing is crazy. I don't even understand how this behaviour happened in the first place.
