So in this instance, you (the X) get hit by the vertical beam that goes into the purple portal, then the horizontal beam coming out of the red portal will be the opposite color.

I personally really like mechanics like that one, as well as the portal-like mechanic in E8. I like to have at least a little challenge in normal since I don't really have an interest in spending much time on Savage, but to each their own!
I was rather surprised people were having problems with that mechanic. It's essentially a checkerboard, and you just set yourself up in advance, with the game giving you a good 5 seconds before the lasers are fired, and another 2-3 seconds before they come back out. A quick look behind you and to your side basically tells you where to stand with ample time to react.
