Audition - Select clips BY COLOR ? and / or Premiere XML into Audition (link original source audio)

I have an important Audition question. For work I have to edit 1-2 hour long talks where I have to cut out certain sentences. I was doing it in Premiere so I could use a transcription and other shortcuts but they want us to do it in Auditon multitracks.

My question is, is there any way on earth to SELECT CLIPS BY COLOR (to be able to ripple delete all the things we want cut out?) I'm able to do this in Premiere and DaVinci and I spent an hour with ChatGPT trying to develop a Phython code to accomplish this and Audition doesn't seem to have a code for finding the color of clips.

We would use Premiere but it turns out when you bring a Premiere XML timeline into Audition, it will RENDER OUT WAV files of all your cuts instead of keeping the source mp3 intact . I tried making a Phython code to have Audition bring in a Premiere timeline and link the original source audio but that also failed. ANY feedback is greatly appreciated!!
