no no no no
you're getting there but you need a deeper understanding.
You're right - due to basic physical biology, humans see MOST colors as the same.
Like, the ATRL logo is red. No one is arguing with me.
Biblio is blue.
Ahh is yellow.
However, we are NOT all the same, and our retinas are DIFFERENT due to genetics and use patterns.
BECAUSE of that, there are SOME colors in the world that are harder for the human eye to intepret exactly; so different people will see the color different.
Color is WAY more complex than "oh that color is blue to me and that color I know as yellow."
Ambient lighting plays a big part of it too. If you've ever had physics you've probably heard of subtractive and addition color mixing where colors look COMPLETELY different under different shades of lighting.
