Trying to compare it to US sports terms, if the NFL allowed color vs color matchups all the time, it would be like if the Packers wore their standard yellow/green/yellow as the primary, but in clash situations wore a mono black uniform with neon yellow trim. Right, so aside from Crystal Palace and Aston Villa, it seems none of the other teams really carry over their aesthetic and colors from the primary to the clash uniform. Just another reason sports uniforms and marketing are out of control, we now have to have a whole third uniform in case the one meant to avoid clashing with the other team now clashes with the other team. Now that it’s big bu$iness, teams have primary (still in the traditional “team colors”) a secondary (road games, never a “team color”) and a 3rd if the secondary shirt for road games clashes with the home team’s primary.
If they were playing at Wolves and Norwich (athletic gold primaries), they’d wear red and all would be fine.

So Arsenal wore red/white for every home game plus any road game where the host wasn’t also wearing red for the other games, Arsenal wore something not red (let’s say yellow/athletic gold). The clash kit was meant to be worn only if the road team’s primary shirt looked too similar to the home team’s primary. So, Liverpool, Man U, Arsenal in red, Leeds, Fulham and Spurs in white, Chelsea, Everton and Leicester in royal blue, and so on. In the days before merchandise sales drove fashion choices, teams had primary and clash kits.
