We do specify the color of the altitude on the glass. For the GA depending on MSN it is "GA alt set, 3000 white/blue", and if there is an alt constraint giving a different value than the one set in the window, we say "xxx set, xxx magenta". And we don't say "ALT blue", the only blues we verbalize is "LOC/GS blue/ AT blue" , but not "APPNAV blue" when cleared for a GPS.....
