Not at all...

The twist rate  differs on *any* cable with multiple twisted pairs.

And there is no easy way to detect which pair has a greater or
lesser twist than any other pair.  The twist rate is not used by
the port hardware to test line integrity.

It does not matter in any technical way.

The coloring is there for easy identification, and of course as
one would expect there are several different standard ways to
color code wires.  The Blue, Orange, Green, Brown, Slate color
series are Bell Standard, developed in the US decades before
EtherNet existed.
