For folks who are technically savvy, I would encourage someone to consider a flat plane and some camera. Put a lamp source close to the plane and make a record of the quantal interaction. Filter the lamp energy with a “blue” gel.
From the camera vantage, there are quantal records that pattern after the energy gradient that falls across the plane. In a pictorial depiction derived from these records, we would have a “shape invariance” emerge if the pictorial depiction is formed reasonably.

However, if we apply a transform to form colourimetry? The most basic principle of shape invariance is violated. Camera colourimetry stretches and warps the quantal records to “match” know coordinates. We can end up with virtual record primaries that are negative relative wattages, all because of this ridiculous obsession with colourimetry. Those negative relative wattages, in terms of the *integrations* of the geometric point samples of R+G+B records, will “remove energy” from the sums.
