We cannot divide these collors because, being vibrational, they run

pigmented colors, I mean colored inks, it is easier to stabilish a
diference.( subtractive synthesis) Even so weŽll find the same
differences in colorimetric perception among people. In rainbow, for
example, there are areas, bands, of possible colors but not specific
colored lights or radiations. I gess there is a confusion lying the
right meaning of "Arbitrary" .
OK. Putting in "indigo" into the colors is an arbitrary way of making 7 out of six more general colors. But showing the point where one color ends and the other begins is virtually impossible. It is an attempt to put in divisions on a continuity; any attempt to do so is automatically arbitrary.
