Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color] `color-mod()` needs a "do not implement" notice

Thanks, @svgeesus! Let me see if I understand your responses.

> It is not perceptually uniform.

This refers to the [color adjusters](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-color-4/#typedef-color-adjuster)? These adjusters change the channels of RGB, HSL, and HWB. For instance, `red()` adjusts a channel of s**R**GB, while `saturation()` adjusts a channel of H**S**L. However, as far as our minds perceive color, adjusting channels in these spaces produces unexpected results.

> It is device dependent.

This refers how we can’t profile colors without things like [`color()`](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-color/#icc-colors). I’m less sure about this one.

> It does not take into account wide gamut displays and there is no defined result while using them.

This is about not having a good color space or syntax for producing or manipulating all the perceivable colors that newer devices can now display. I’m much less sure about this.

How’d I do? I’m okay with success or failure. One means I might help others. The other means I might learn. 😉
