Well I know that our conscience of color is NOT set in the data of
wavelengths, at least there are three receptors, R G B, and then
post-treatment of the signal in other (cingular ?) areas, this is done
in a way such that if you look at a green spot in a red environment
you do not see the same color than in a light green one.

Yet, what then ?

The same is true with smell and taste, so ==> by the very same
argument that tells us we should lojbanize the chemical composition of
a taste, we should also, to remain logical, lojbanize

 [ (R:100%, G:30%, B:60%) | Cingular Area : red context | and so on ]

which I find very logical indeed, but pretty scary
