That rainbow effect is just the default demo mode and is the peripheral’s manufacturer’s way to advertise that the LEDs inside are RGB. This means that the LEDs can be customized to be any color or combination of color that the owner wants at the press of a button. It eas say and simple to do.
The whole point of it is customization. And yet for some reason a lot of people leave it on the default demo rainbow mode after buying it.
I’m sure a fair chunk of people are like me that don’t care about RGB and only got it because it’s easier/cheaper to get components with RGB than without. And I’m not downloading bloatware just to turn it off.
There is FOSS that can control most RGB schemes that can be controlled from software.
Though I’m sortof like you in that I installed nothing, so I don’t have references or a user experience. Luckily, I could turn off all the BS in the BIOS, so I have a nice and dark machine without having to dig.

I can identify your “for some reason.” Reason: I am lazy.
