Even the title of the thread tells you that the CFA is white parchment (which is precisely the opposite of yellow, such as Tischendorf and Scrivener making up the fiction of yellow with age). And this is supported by numerous quotes, both historical and the recent British Library. Then we discuss the pictures.
Who cares for quotes. You always treat verbal statements as some kind of absolute quantification, which they aren't. We see on the pics that your story doesn't check out. The Leipzig leaves are a light yellow, as are the British Library ones.

Yes, that is your contention. This thread has proved that your contention is wrong, simply because you don't know what a color standard is. Deal with it.

But that's your whole shtick. You just ignore the evidence, wait a few days after it got presented - again and again even in this thread - and then go back to your original fake story. Reminds me of someone else who keeps popping up in the news cycle...

Online narcissistic hacks like Steven Avery, who refuse to learn Greek or how to collate or even how to think.

He also naively assumes every single page in every single spot is going to age exactly the same.

Yep.

I dismantled his source of nonsense over on an evangelical site.
