My question is - why do no manufacturers provide an orange/yellow tint as it is a highly recognised vision aid.

Better distinction by 'uman brain in yellow light wavelength.
Thats why street lights are sodium (yellow).
Orange is just soooo last year, and not as good as yellow.
White is even worse and probably worst of the lot (except for black light) for interpretation of shapes and contrast.
