The blue/yellow thing is interesting; I think it may have something to do with how human color vision works and variations between individuals in this regard. For instance, when printing color, I notice that I am quite sensitive to yellow/blue balance issues, while I find green/magenta issues more difficult to spot. Moreover, yellow/blue gives such a strong emotional response, with blues being experienced as cool (the blues, indeed!) while yellows are warm and friendly. The bias towards the latter seems to make sense.

For me looking realistically is what makes sense. Daylight is blue 5600K and night is yellow 3200 3600K

Natural (daylight) light is highly variable - it depends on many circumstances. If you don't shoot slides - it doesn't really matter. I don't know what your criteria are for "realistic colors", but in real life the warmth or coolness of colors can vary by a few minutes. But still - the golden hours provide a fabulous color. Maybe not realistic, but real.
