Since you asked, that made total sense to me, at least. It was just better phrased than I usually encounter it in texts written for lay-people such as myself.
Can I see your citations? They sound like really fun articles to read. Also, I'm curious, I've heard bits and snippets about some people, apparently more commonly women than men, being quad-cromats (if that's the right word) and having more sensitivity in the green/blue-green end of the spectrum. Is that part of your current reading? I'd love to find more good writing on that.
What does "I've been writing the color vision test..." mean? That is to say- you could mean you were writing a test for students to assess and evaluate their understanding of how color vision functions, or You could mean you were writing, oh, I don't know, a program that produces various wavelengths of light and measures responses to assess and evaluate the sensitivity in an individual or animal to various light-wavelength-stimulii. I'm curios- either would be cool.
