I've been doing that on an "as needed" basis when I'm into a circuit
for some reason. *The issue is actually even worse than I described
since only the "hot" wire of each circuit goes to the breaker panel.
Neutral and safety ground go to bus bars in a special panel located
elsewhere. *Everything is loose wire in harnesses of course, in the
same lovely shade of red.

ABYC does have a pretty good standard for wiring and wire colors but
it is still voluntary for the manufacturer.
I do notice it does conform pretty well to the way outboard
controllers are wired in that fat cable and the wiring in the motor
itself.
