Hi, nice article. I just want to give my 5 cents here.
I am not an expert in creating vim colour schemes, but I did find a very simple way that does not require any plugin or complex configuration. And it follows the help syntax as you said.
Basically, you can create a table with all the groups vim identifies, and colour them at will. Then you will just have to replace the NONE by a colour of your choice. I made a template table and couple of colour schemes from it.
I have created a couple of schemes this way, and honestly I found no reason (for my self) to do it any other way. One thing I want to explore next is that if you want to make you own groups, but vim already has enough groups defined :-)
Cheers

If you wish to add specific colours for specific groups, for example some languages you can use the following:
github.com/joaomcteixeira/run_comm...
Finally, I use this command to identify which groups things belong to, so I know what I want to colour:
github.com/joaomcteixeira/run_comm...
