I feel like you're missing the forest for the trees. Outside of any digital color space, aqua is still defined as "blue green" in plain English - I just used the CSS RGB definition as an example where it's literally defined as just equal parts blue and green.

What I'm saying is why are you using an arbitrary specification to make decisions based on individual perception? I could say 0,255,255 is aqua but that doesn't really mean anything beyond digital color space, so why even use that as a metric for how green or blue something is beyond a perfectly color-accurate digital display using RGB as a colorspace? "Blue green" in plain English is not solely the 0,255,255 "blue green" that is in RGB space, it's like you narrowed it down to just that and ignored everything else
