my reasoning: the actual colors we can see -> the wavelengths that we can extrapolate to -> basically extrapolated wavelengths plus an ‘unpure-ness’ factor -> not even real wavelengths (ok well king blue and maybe lavender if I’m being generous could be)

    I guess you could call this pink but I would normally think of it more in the magenta range of or

    in the c/196 banner there is more red than green, meaning the fully saturated version wouldn’t correspond to a real wavelength

    anyways, I’m not trying to say that those colors don’t exist because obviously we can see them, just that they show the weaknesses of human color perception
