Well if it's really only $5 as stated in a later message, then coitanly.  I
prefer easier readablility - like "MIDI ch 1" as oppossed to some cryptic
code - over color scheme and uniformity; i.e. red-on-black LEDs and matching
with other modules with displays.

Like others, as long as they are up to "MOTM robustness standards" I
wouldn't mind (even if the threaded part is black).
