Maybe a thread drift here but It's the lights on taxiways you have to watch out for, wrongly identifying sideline blue with centerline white is a biggy!!
Ehhemm Nitpicker 330 - wrongly identifying taxiway centerline as WHITE, when it is in fact GREEN, could be even bigger, wouldn't you say??!!

Apron B and C heading east in Bali at night is an example to watch, it has sideline blue BUT only on the south side!!! In the rain at night you have to be very careful not to track the lights under the nose!!
Being an APRON, having the edgelines marked with the EDGE LINE color, seems quite appropriate to me and certainly in accordance with Op Specs in ICAO Annex 14. Seeing that the northern side of Apron B & C are the actual buildings, where you would normally nose in, I don't quite get how you perceive this as confusing?
