Of course I've noticed it, how could I not?  (Murphy's law has *so* many
corollaries.)

When I really want it, for any given command, I use bash with
     command 2>&1 | tee /tmp/junk
and this suppresses most color-coding so I can view the results with simple
tools.

It helps to have a really big /tmp (mine has 19GB free at the moment), and
to keep
using the same name in case you forget to delete the (possibly huge) file.
