Not so. All you have to do is hit the defined points in CIE diagram. The
Pioneer plasma sets hit them dead-on.


Indeed. None of the major display techologies deliver full spectrum,
nor do they need to.

This is true only if you have custom LUTs or decoding algorithms for a
display based on the relationship between the spectra of the lighting and
the CIE standard observer functions that cameras are generally aligned to
approximate.


What that has to do with it I dont know. If you find an RGB display
with violet output, I'm all ears.
