I did wonder if it was because they weren't compliant with some
regulation or other - particularly because the orange background makes
them quite difficult to read. A very odd choice - I'm surprised they
didn't just go for white with an orange stripe at the bottom or
something.


White with an orange strip is the permanent style for overhead signage, as
seen at Stratford, Clapham Junction so far IIRC. There are supposed to be
'3D' LT style roundels eventually, as platform running in signs, but only
where there is sufficient room.
