Hue is a poor choice for representing amounts because it does not have a natural, ordered scale that can represent quantities effectively. Unlike length, texture, or brightness, which can vary in a way that intuitively corresponds to more or less of something, hue variation (changes in color) does not naturally suggest more or less of a quantity.
