But I'm just guessing.

Unsurprising. The highlights are added and removed in readline's redisplay.
Once you enter newline (or any key bound to accept-line), readline returns
the line immediately without any redisplay, so the line remains as is.

That's OG BSD context diff format (diff -c), which dates from 1981. I find
it easier to read than unified or `git' format.
