Effectiveness of "RED"

I was watching a few fishing shows on TV this weekend, when a commercial for red fishing line (I think Cajun line) came on and state how it is "scientifically proven" that the color red dissapears in the water and then went on to promote the cajun line.

Ok, so if red dissapears in water, then why is red found in so many lures, porkrind trailers, cod jigs, bluefish jigs, and, of course, wehn fishing tube and worm rigs ?

If you say that it's the sandworm that attracts fish to the tube and worm and not the tube, OK, then why not use chartresuse or some other color instead of red. Anyway, this is not a post about tube and worms, but what's your opinion about "red" dissapearing as a color in the depths ?
Thanks
