There is a precise maths in color.

The grayish band in the middle of the gradient is roughly the same as 
the midway point between yellow and white / black in the 
3d-color-prism. It would actually be half the value in intensity. As 
seen in this the 3d-color-prism, it is only the colors between yellow 
red and white/black that get dirty. A gradient between orange and 
transparent would have a brownish color in the middle.
