Analog 1/3 octave or parametric equalizers introduce so much "insertion"
coloration into a system that would think that the improvement in the
frequency domain would be more than offset by the distortion introduced.


What form does this insertion coloration take, when does it happen, and is
it always there?


You know as well as I do that the insertion distortion of which I speak is
caused by the ringing of active filters and yes, it's there as long as the
filter is in the circuit. It's not there if the filter is bypassed
(obviously).
