Can never affect the colored part of the cost.

The generic X cost is still considered generic even if there is a requirement that a specific color be used for it. For example, “only black mana can be spent this way”. This distinction is important for effects which reduce the generic portion of a spell's cost.

This can lower the cost to zero, but not below zero.
