So why don't they call it blue with a tiny bit of red paint instead?

When I traded my reddish blue Sport in a few years ago, whoever was responsible for typing up the dealer's second hand stock sheet didn't believe anyone would call a colour reddish blue. It ended up on their website as "reddish red"

I asked a body shop guy the same question a while back. He says its surprising how much red paint actually gets mixed into `reddish blue` it think from memory it was 30-40%. I think the sonic blue looks better anyway (maybe im biased)
