This makes me dubious that you're actually looking at any of the weapons. There are definitely coloured ones, sometimes dyeable so even ones that start off looking dull by the default metal colours can come up bright – the Deepgold War Quoits for example, which IIRC are black by default, but you can dye the black parts any colour you like. Another version dyes the inner parts while keeping the rim black. Experiment with them.

How can a colour be "not dancery"?

Sword and shield on paladin isn't a variation, it's just what they use.

And the one-handed mage weapons stopped being made ages ago, and they're functionally a pain. They're classified as a different type of weapon to staffs so you can't glamour one over the other. Perpetuating it would mean being locked out of half the available weapon glamours according to which sort was released in the current tier of weapons.

Doesn't that suggest to you that they're working on adding things over time?

If they wanted to be lazy about it, they could have just slapped theme colours on a pre-existing weapon model, but instead it seems they're taking their time and making unique models to match the others.
