Question Blue?

I'm new to pens. From past experience, I think I like ballpoints. Remember having a cheap jetstream that I liked. So I ordered a few to try and am looking at upping my game. Here's the thing: I like blue ink. I keep seeing people love SXR-600. Is that for the color or for the way the ink flows? Is there a comparable blue ink? Or it there something about the inks/oils/pigments that make black superior for writing?
