Re: [csswg-drafts] [css-color-4] proposed breaking change: predefined XYZ is D65 adapted, not D50 (#6722)

I agree that it is confusing at first.

The thing is that our eyes have a built-in mechanism so that *white looks like white* under a fairly broad range of illuminants. The problem is that *all the other colors change too*. Color A no longer looks like color A.

And so, when white changes, we need to compute the **corresponding color** in other words, Color B, which looks like what Color A used to look like before the adaptive white point changed.
