I used to agree with you about the flippy colors but then I tried
  https://github.com/egberts/vim-syntax-bind-named
and it is _so_ much easier editing a bind RPZ file with syntax errors
highlighted (unless your eyesight is good enough to easily tell the
difference between a comma and a period .. then maybe not so much
better)
and a happy extra is that editing other types of files is also easier
with syntax coloring .. but again, maybe I think it's better because
of my poor eyesight
