Kind of strange considering most medications come in a variety of colors, and forms, sometimes with letters/numbers, sometimes without. Might be useful to have a standardized color and labeling system.

I'm always amazed that they aren't required to have a standardised code marking on them.

Sure, it won't stop fraud, but this isn't about that... it's about knowing exactly what white pill little Johnny just swallowed out of grandma's bathroom cabinet when nobody was looking.

For sure. One of those many things that seem obvious once you think about it, but won’t happen until someone comes along with the political or social capital to champion it and oppose a pharma industry that will fight against any minor expense or threat to their brand.
