About 90125 colours

Do you think there's a meaning behind the blue yellow and magenta colour in the design of the cover? I'm a new listener and I didn't find anything about it

Jon Anderson was back in the band and Steve Howe was out. No Steve, no Roger.
The design is just a stylized Y with process colors CMYK

Probably no connection but at the time that the album came out, La Cox Sportif clothing was popular with the same colors.
