CMY as RGB display colors vs. CMY as print colors[edit]

Hi @Pbrks:
you reverted my modifications done on 2022-05-22,
OK.
I maintain my suggestion.
Have you seen colors in the page en:CMYK? Full CMYK cyan is not full RGB cyan (same for CMYK magenta or CMYK yellow compared to full RBG values).
Full range CMYK colors are not full range RGB colors, as RGB is done for display (additive colors) and CMYK is done for print or dye (subtractive colors).
RGB display color gamut doesn't fit CMY print color gamut:
for instance, full cyan in RGB world can't be rendered in CMYK world, never, ever!
same for full red, green, blue, yellow, magenta (and other intermediate color values) cannot be rendered in CMYK world!
And, in a similar manner, similar reciprocity, not all of the CMYK gamut colors can be rendered in RGB world!
As the two gamuts can't be superimposed with colors entirely in one or the other gamut.
