Good reminder about these persisting blending issues in the linear interpretation of RGB values, which was well explained to non-coders as well here in a quite popular MinutePhysics video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKnqECcg6Gw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKnqECcg6Gw As others commented the gamma scaling issues seem even more relevant. Just please, don't use RGB color space for generating gradients. In fact, it's ill fitted for most operations concerning the perception of colors as is. chroma.js: https://vis4.net/blog/posts/mastering-multi-hued-color-scales/ https://vis4.net/blog/posts/mastering-multi-hued-color-scale...
