Literally does… There’s a number of colors that we perceive that are fictitious. This is well known in color theory. https://grantsonnex.com/why-purple-doesnt-exist/ Don’t believe me? That’s fine. Listen to an actual artist who’s whole job it is to understand colors. There is no “purple” on the light spectrum. And if you’re the type to say violet=purple… then here you go! https://jakubmarian.com/difference-between-violet-and-purple/
If we cannot define a color by a wavelength… then it’s a color we have to define by how it’s perceived. That’s not a “true” or “real” color. That doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist or cannot be perceived, but that it only exists because we perceive it and wouldn’t otherwise.
“Brown” is also the same problem. Brown only exists in the context of light and darkness. You cannot just produce “Brown” light. You can produce vary levels of “Dark” orange… and in the context of a dark or light background you’ll either see it as orange or brown.
Since you don’t know how to read links. here you go specifically broken out of the paragraph for you to click. Or if you need more because you’re “Special”?
Yeah, that doesn’t mean it isn’t a “real” color.

Do I have to keep going?
No need to be such an asshole about it. Keep that on reddit.
And just like reddit… they could have actually read the post. But they didn’t. So it looks like we’re all redditors here.
Interesting… So they’re two different colors right?
So purple is a color.
