Together with other complementary faces they cover the whole color space. If you don't want the default yellow color, you can customize it to another shade of yellow, e.g. "Light Goldenrod Yellow". If you want a shade of green, customize `hi-green' and use it, etc. OTOH, face names like `hi-lock-1' or `hi-lock-2' are meaningless. What does the number 1 or 2 mean? Compare them with other faces that have a number in their names where the number in `info-title-1', `gnus-cite-1', `outline-1', `org-level-1' means the nesting level. What could be improved is `hi-lock-face-defaults' to specify a color palette like in `vc-annotate-color-map' that produces such color gradient face names as `vc-annotate-face-DDFF3F' (note that the hex number "DDFF3F" is still meaningful in the face name).
