Indicator dots
I realize that the orange indicator dot means that the microphone is being accessed. But with some phone calls it is orange and sometimes it is red- what is the red dot mean?

Do you by any chance have the setting "Increase Contrast" in Settings -> Accessibility -> Display & Text Size turned on?
That can make the orange dot appear in red.

I am clearly seeing two different colors and it can be orange on one call and red on the next. See these examples attached.
Whatever else is on the screen can affect your perception of the color, making the orange appear more or less red in some circumstances.
