“In the RGB color model used in computer and television screens, violet is produced by mixing red and blue light, with more blue than red.”
“Violet is closely associated with purple. In optics, violet is a spectral color (referring to the color of different single wavelengths of light), whereas purple is the color of various combinations of red and blue (or violet) light,[5][6] some of which humans perceive as similar to violet. In common usage, both terms are used to refer to a variety of colors between blue and red in hue.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violet_(color)
Okay violet is purple in common usage. I was talking in scientific terms since I was talking about wavelengths and spectral colors. You just pointed out the same thing I said that violet is a spectral color and has its own wavelength and is different from the secondary color purple. Violet is only purple in every day speech, not when you talk about the science of electromagnetic waves. And trying to disproof my point with RGB colors is just dumb, since we were obviously not talking about artificial light. Yes you can mimic violet with red and blue but that doesn’t disproof that violet has its own wavelength.
