You spelled grey wrong KR.
I am allowed to spell it incorrectly as gray because 3/4 of my household hold American passports.

In my case it's my son's middle name so I pretty much have to spell it that way. Thankfully there is no American spelling of ruby so my daughter escaped this burden.
But if I am being honest, at least for a name I prefer it spelled gray.

The screens that surround us may be grey, but the pixels they display have made the world more colorful than ever.
Many of the 16M colors defined by RGB are really expensive or impossible to reproduce using dyes.
Also CSS gradients and color transition animations make it really easy to create new color experiences that don't exist in nature

good point that phone displays may be compensating for a lack of physical world color

Photos back then also just had incorrect whitebalance making them colorful.
Like analog Fujifilm was just always blue/greenish. And kodak pumping out the sepia yellows. Easly digital cameras auto white balance missed the correct temperature almost just as often

Very interesting!
Why they are researching colors in human made things? They should research for natural objects and find the best 'green' and if they won't find it dark enough, they should put down cameras and plant some greenery.

Weird dataset, considering that color photography wasn't invented until the 1900s.
