The GOUT transfer is generally pink-shifted, desaturated, and overly bright compared to the better color references Harmy used.  This is due to the GOUT being based on a different print on different filmstock, the fading properties of that filmstock, and just the way it was scanned so many years ago.

Also Harmy tried to adjust the badly mangled Blu-ray colors to match his references, and sometimes he was less successful than other times.  He wasn't starting off from a clean, good scan, so there are occasional imperfections.  Not that it didn't still result in the best-looking transfer I've ever seen.
