Why are these more refreshing than the coke type stuff? Is it just a placebo Cause of the color of them.

I'd never given it any thought, but you might be onto something here...

They have twice as much carbonation and are less acidic as dark sodas.
It makes them feel "light" and "bubbly" instead of "heavy" and with "bite"
The color probably adds to the perception too.

Sprite from a tap is awesome, it tastes like sweet static.

Caffeinated sprite would be nice. Nothing else different, just light and crisp lemon soda with a bit of a pick me up.

There is something in darker sodas like coke that makes me having to clear my throat for hours after drinking it. With sprite I don't have that problem

Cola is a rubbish drink. On the other hand I like cola flavoured things.

No. Cola ice blocks and cola lollies. Only good cola drink is cherry cola.
