Other boot message text is gray. I don't recall seeing "teal" messages before during boot.

"System Log", "Logs", "vim", "more", "less", "cat", "gvim" all do not show color.

The colors mean something. What does the "teal" in the boot logs mean? When you say, "I've been seeing messages during boot", I guess that means stuff that shows up in the system log? You can probably see the message again in color using `dmesg --color=always`. It will colorize even when stdout is redirected. Also see <https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man1/dmesg.1.html>.
