The memory of CBS field sequential color shows appearing as a scrambled mess on sets not adapted to receive that standard (virtually none were) was fresh enough that RCA/NBC apparently felt the need to emphasize compatibility in that redundant way. In other words, while they wanted to emphasize color, they also did not want to say anything that might dissuade black & white set owners from tuning in.
