Will 802.11ax BSS Coloring help if the neighboring stations are AC (Wifi5) only?

So I have read about how BSS coloring will help with dense and congested wifi settings. Other neighboring stations will use another color and therefore not block a transmission on my network.

However, what if I only have AC neighbor networks, that dont support BSS and do not send color codes? Are their packets treated as "different color", therefore not blocking my network, or will they render my BSS feature useless, and it will only work if everyone on the frequency uses AX?
