SGC autograph authenticated cases have always been red. There is no conspiracy.
It simply means they have authenticated the signature and it is not just a card grade.
Its extremely important to have the separate colors as people were scamming buyers with PSA authentic grades with fake sigs for years. They would put a fake sig on a real card and ask for an auth grade. Unknowledgable buyers would think the auth grade meant the sig was real, when it really just meant it was a real card with a fake sig. Anyone buying an auth card without a flip designating the sig as well is a rube.
PSA is also notorious for slabbing cards with grades with fake sigs. They will tell you that they only were paid to grade the card and not the sig so the guarantee for the sig falls on the manufacturer. Here is an example of a fake sig

The best part of that excuse is that it's a fake card as well, but that's psa for you. The only thing real about this is the mistake psa made putting it in a case.
