Mace Windu’s purple lightsaber is symbolic of how he is simultaneously a hero to the galaxy and an antagonist to Anakin.
I mean, I know Samuel L. Jackson asked for it, but remember George Lucas said no initially and only agreed when the time came for reshoots. I think the reason he changed his mind is because he was working on the story for Revenge of the Sith and realized that giving Mace a blue or green lightsaber wouldn’t make sense for the role he played in the story.
