I'm opening this issue because:

• npm is crashing.
• npm is producing an incorrect install.
• npm is doing something I don't understand.
• Other (see below for feature requests):

What's going wrong?

Running npm outdated in a color enabled terminal prints you a nice color coded table of your outdated packages. However it's not clear what red and yellow package names mean.
Reading the docs doesn't reveal the difference either. The only place I found mention of this is #4176.

My first impression was this:

• red: the package is really-really outdated, and updating it would probably bring in a breaking change
• yellow: the package is outdated, but updating is fine

Actually it means the opposite.

Highlighting this in the docs would help, would you accept a PR with some text about the output colors?

How can the CLI team reproduce the problem?

run npm outdated in a package where dependencies are out of date.
