I think the only reason Cure White isn’t officially a Blue is because Egret and especially Rhythm (who was part of a team that also contained blue and yellow members) exist.

But yeah, Toei has yet to deviate from the 7 main colors yet (in terms of the franchise as a whole that is, as I mentioned Moonlight is literally referred to as a silver Precure at least once in HeartCatch).

Even out of those we’ve only had 3 White Cures and 5 Green Cures while Pink (the only color that’s been consistently present in every season), Blue, Yellow, and to a lesser extent Purple and Red are much more prominent (coming in at 14, 11, 12, 8, and 7 respectively). Egret can count as a blue in both her alts. She also have the personality of the traditional calm blues, a stereotype set by the orignial blue Cure White. It is really just Rhythm that have nowhere else to categorize into other than white.

In some sense all seasons have completed the pink/blue/yellow set. Even Maho Tsukai as we have a pink Cure in Miracle while blue and yellow in their Sapphire and Topaz alts. Splash Star's pink and yellow are alts of the same girl but still.
