It definitely is closer to pink than white, or more accurately, a shade of orangish-brown, which makes sense you are dying a colored block, as opposed to wool, which is naturally white, which also affects other colors; for example, cyan would better be called gray since there is barely any cyan in it (I checked the colors in Paint and the middle pixel for "white" was RGB(212, 182, 163) and "cyan" was RGB(90, 93, 93), using the textures from 1.6.4, which haven't been changed since then according to the Wiki). The names used by 1.6.4 are IMO more accurate in this case; "White Stained Clay" (or "White Stained Terracotta"), meaning it was stained white, as opposed to simply "White Terracotta".
As far as I can tell the white terracotta appears pink, for some odd reason. Doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but then if it were pure white it would look too similar to the quartz block, so unless it were given a different texture it would negate the purpose of it. It's a decor block intended for improving the look of builds. And you're right, it is stained terracotta.

Welcome to the world of color! Our eyes readily adapt and make quick adjustments to color shifts; we are able to perceive 'white' or 'gray' even when either is heavily tinted with a non-neutral color. In the world of design neutral colors are very oftened not neutral, for specific purposes. For example, a white paint may have substantial warm tones to counter balance cool shadows or the 'cool' temperture of many indoor light sources.
I actually had to tackle this problem today. I needed to find neutral gray backdrops for my product photography. You'd think it would be as simple as choosing a gray sheet of paper, but not a chance. Put two different gray papers side by side and the differences can easily be seen, be it warm or cool tones. Fortunately, I remembered to bring my Color Checker and was able to select three reasonably neutral backdrops.
I don't have the seed but i found a village in 1.16.4 with a stack of hay bales paths and chickens and no villagers or buildings. It also had villager sounds but i went into spectator and there weren't even villagers underground to make the sounds.

The subtle differences in colours will be less noticable in the dark, I agree with you on that. I'm just saying white terracotta is not actually white, it has a pinkish hue to it.
But these differences compared to quartz and concrete do help for more creativity in decoration.
I can appreciate these differences because then it gives these other decoration blocks more of a purpose.
