Are you asking me why is paint the way it is? I don’t know, take it up with nature, but stop spreading misinformation.

    I'm saying that, with respect to color reproduction, paints work exactly the same as dyes and pigments. You can't make magenta paint from red, blue, and yellow. So the "primary colors" of paint are actually CMY.
