Huh? I know what you are saying but don't you think you ought to just get to the point?
Anyway, there is a difference from a good palette and a bad one. Normally, it's that a good one looks like it could come from a profesional game while a bad one doesn't make your stomach feel very good. Then there is the inbetween which is better than affecting you but seems... like it really is a hack or, in other words, not very good.
It just to mention since we want the hacks to be as good as possible.
