Applies to many other colors as well. I “understand” why that is but it hurts my brain to think about.

    The color yellow subjectively exists. Like I said at the beginning, color is a product of the mind. Objectively, as in is it directly measurable, light has no color. Physics deals with objective measurements.

      Objectively yellow is between 590 and 610nm.

      More bad news, there are displays that are RYGB, made by Sharp.

        I don’t see how a RYGB monitor is bad news.

        How does one objectively measure color?

        If color is in light then why do people see yellow from an RGB monitor when no yellow light is present? If color is a physical property of light how do we see color? Do the chemicals in our cones see/respond to color? How? How is color detected by chemicals in our eye transmitted to the brain? Does electricity also support color? If so, how?
