If the same region of text is highlighted both by the major mode and
by outline-minor-mode, the resulting colors will be different from
what you might expect, because Emacs will merge the two faces.

By highlighting the same parts of the buffer text. You basically tell
Emacs to use two different faces for the same text, so the result will
be the merge of the two faces.
