I know one PAL color tv set which had really an American like hue control. It was the Porta-Color, made by Kuba Imperial. This set had no PAL delay line, it was a "Simple-PAL" receiver, and the hue control was located on the back side of the set. With this control one could shift the color demodulator axis.
I have posted this old article because it shows that reliable and natural colors didn't depend on the color tv system but on good development of the technical and electronical design of the sets.
The tv sets of the first and of the second generation had this tint control. Since 1970 the tv sets only had the color control.
