Too bad for you and your definition. Show a picture of Mercury to just 
about anyone and ask, what color is that, and they'll certainly say 
"gray" "dark gray" etc. They'll say snow is white and coal is black, 
too. But the point is, you'll be _very_ hard pressed to find anyone say 
"red", so therefore your claim is simply wrong, and your whining whether 
gray is a color is just a diversion.

First Google hit on "color of Mercury":
https://www.universetoday.com/13969/color-of-mercury/
(and even Google blurts out 'dark gray')

Color enhanced out the wazoo and false color doesn't count for anything.
Regardless, it is blue and yellowish, *still* not red.
