Re: What do people mean when they say Fuji ( or other camera ) colors are better.

Fuji color refers to the color after debayering *in a given software* compared to other camera manufacturers *in the same software.* And there is a distinct difference; and as was specifically stated before, it's most notable in the quality of the greens and skintones, again when compared to other cameras.
If you can't see it using your editing machine and software or because of individual vision limitations, that's too bad for you. If you choose not to bother about the differences because of some other reason, that's obviously your choice. But to claim it's irrelevant or non-existent because of either of those reasons is simply wrong.
I *might* leave Fuji for a variety of reasons, but color is not one of them. It remains the best compared to what I have seen from any other brand.
I can understand avoiding C1 for a variety of reasons, but color accuracy is not one of them. Again, it's better than any other software I've comapred it to in this regard.
It still all depends on the camera profile that is applied after demosaicing. You are never looking at a RAW file in editing software that doesn't have a profile. If you like how Fuji files look in C1 with whatever default profile it's using more than how other camera files look like in C1 with whatever default profile is used on those files, that's nice insofar as it helps you get to where you want to go more quickly and easily.
Side note for profile etiquette and general community standards: You can be really snotty. It's off putting and immature. If I wanted this kind of tone, I'd go to Reddit.
