Why terrain color isn't same color as on the mini-map?

Props to whoever is doing this wiki page:http://ringofbrodgar.com/wiki/Terrain

But still why they aren't the same colors? Since the terrain would be brown and in the mini-map it would be orange (for example).
Since from what I heard that in Legacy if grassland terrain was green, so it would be portrayed the same color in the mini-map.
Since it was the case in Salem and it was done by the same guys Seatribe I think, not 100% sure.
Could devs or anyone give a good reason for doing such stupid thing? Since I can't locate my friends when they say, they are the yellow patch, but I would have no idea what yellow patch the terrain's or the mini-map's.

PS.
Not sure if I was to post this on Critique & Ideas, so I am posting it here.

A lot of the terrains are made up of several colors. I've tried to use the dominant one for the minimap.

What terrains are off?

Well majority of them http://ringofbrodgar.com/wiki/Terrain "Beech Grove" terrain is green-ish minimap shows yellow-ish and so on.
Also what's with unforagable flowers and grass scattered all across the terrains? I keep mistaking them for a foragable and keep clicking on them and then realizing that its not a foragable.

Every pavement, since the stone seams are drawn on the minimap - which kills pixel art.
