On the fire exit thing. Yes absolutely!
There are many incidences where people in a work place or a hotel don't understand the local language.
If you saw a non-standard greek fire exit sign in Greek on say a blue background you wouldn't have a clue what it meant! Or try Hungarian!
You can still have EXIT, SORTIE, Ausgang or whatever you want on the sign provided it still has the green background and the pictogram.
As for the neutral colour it's poor quality control!
I can't see that as a major problem!
