I'm no marketing guru, but blue ranks as the majority of people's favourite colour in general as well:
I meant to start this post as a defense of Fender throwing stuff at the wall and seeing what sticks, but it degenerated into my personal gripe about colour choices.
Oops.
I don't have much to add to your larger point, since I tend to agree that Fender actually does a pretty good job of both pushing new and old ideas (well, excluding the new Piss-Poor Photoshop Job Series), but the most interesting thing to me here is the 'favorite color' graph. Look how BIG the purple section is! Significantly more than red, and every single guitar on Earth comes in red. Yet, I don't think Fender has ever made a production model in purple other than a couple of signatures. I'd love some purples! (And more sparkles, damn it!)

The MIJ Mascis JM was the only offset in aware of. There have been purple strats and teles over the years, but not nearly enough offsets.
