I read somewhere that the silver shoes were changed to ruby slippers for the movie because the color would show up better on film. I will point out that in the movie version of The Wiz, the producers stayed true to Baum, and kept Dorothy's shoes a silver color.
And I think you nailed why I've always been . . . less than satisfied with the movie. I never liked the "it was all a dream" ending.
