That's true for setting arbitrary colors. I tend to set the color once (seasonal or whatever) and just leave it alone so dynamic color control isn't that important for me but I get it.
Not an ideal solution, but it is possible to do this with Routines and using Actions in the Alexa-Hue bridge. I am not sure how many colours you have defined but if it is a limited number then you can setup an Alexa routine to say for example "colour lamp red" (or if in the USA "color lamp red" ). Use this to e.g. dim an Alexa Action device to 10%. Then in the relevant dim action defined to the device, if the value is 10% set the colour of your lamp device to to red. Likewise if it was 15% you could set the colour to blue or whatever.
