I have a part 30602 and I'm trying to figure the correct color. I believe
it to be copper since it's the only known color that makes sense. I have
added a copper color part to show the color difference.

I'm sure that is copper. If you look at the "known colors" for that part
the only one that is even close is copper. I'm sure it's just a different
batch or age.

It is copper.
BrickLink's copper combines several different copper-like colors.
Wow. 🤯 Why??
Is there an actual reason for this (e.g. parts that overlap between LEGO’s colours,
natural colour-variations that make identification difficult, etc), or is it
just the product of inertia?

When parts are released in a color that is not (yet) included in the Bricklink
catalog, there are two options:
- Add the new color,
- Group the color with an existing color
For all copper colors (both plastic colors and surface coatings), the second
option was chosen even though the appearance of the part can be very different.
This is supposed to make it easier for buyers and sellers. Many sellers will
not be able to accurately identify these colors because they are not used often
enough. These 7 colors were used for less than 50 parts in our catalog.
I have discussed copper with Admins in the past, I think it is time for an update

The only color that I could see a chance of getting added would be something
akin to "Metallic Gold" or "Metallic Silver" to separate surface-coated copper
parts from copper-color molded parts. Beyond that, it would be highly unlikely
to get any consensus to make further changes.

That would be my priority also. I think we need a Metallic Copper.

+1 for Metallic Copper
I don't know of any part that comes in more than one copper color; without
any overlap, it makes sense to keep all the pearl copper colors together here.
