I like your train of thought. I also believe in the multi-color streaking(if I may borrow your term). It always seemed to me that there were solid color bands on early Fokker DVII fuselages and on Dr.I's in particular. I just figured the people who wrote books and published articles had access to far better photos and could see things I couldn't. I have read somewhere that when the British compared their solid PC10/12 finish to German printed/banded camos the German patterns blended into the backgrounds better. The progression in Fokker camo from one airframe to the next works for me.
