I think it's hard to accomplish all three of these things with mood lighting. Most of the auxiliary lighting I've seen has made it really hard to see the other lights, and there have been a few close calls because of it.

You are correct it is difficult to identify which is why they want bow and stern lights on. I also do agree with Seaplane, if anything it should just be stern lights not bow.
