I can't even tell the difference between the color settings on my phone or TV. I am not colorblind, I pass those tests. I think maybe I have spent so much time staring at screens in my life that my brain has internalized rgb.
One of the most enlightening things for me long ago was trying to write a converter between wavelength and rgb value. It led to all the right questions.
Ultimately I still dont understand color perception. It is hideously complex. But also so fascinating. The mothers of colorblind men are often tetrachromatic. I really wonder what TV's look like to them, since they assume 3 normal frequency responses.
