I wonder why they are using different linens on domestic vs. international routes -- seems counterproductive if trying to reduce costs and streamline? Does anyone else find the grey linens and plain napkins to seem cheap and "less premium?"

On my JFK-LAX the other day, the drink cart used grey linens, the dinner linen was grey, and the trey linen was blue. As previously stated, I've also had the opposite where the trey linen was grey and the table linen was blue – obviously both combinations are catering issues.
