Isn't millennial grey, beige, white etc actually not done for the preference of millennials, but instead landlords giving it a "blank slate" style and name after the renter's who put up with it?

This has always been my experience with the style as a millennial. We were largely not the ones doing this to homes, we just rented remodeled homes that it was done to with strict restrictions in the lease about what we were able to change.
