The more I think about it, the more I realize I don't want there to be any red lightsabers in Episode VII.

I'll raise you...

I don't want to see more than two lightsabers in any single frame. I'll walk the fuck out if I do.

The PT ruined lightsabers for me.

Yes.

And as for why: yeah, I see red lightsabers as a Sith thing, specifically a Palpatine clan thing (if only because that's what we see in the films). I fancy the villain being a bad Jedi (is dark jedi the correct term?), or not a force/lightsaber wielder at all. 

Ever notice that the color red appears on many Naboo things and Naboo is Palpatine's homeplanet? I think that Palpatine gave himself and his apprentices red lightsabers because red means something on his homeplanet.
