> because you don't need to be a Will Hunting to decipher on the fly that 100 100 50 is a toxic green or 360 50 30 is a color of the lipstick of your history teacher Both LCH and OkLCH have this property, just with different ranges. If anything, they have this propertly *more* because you know that e.g. `lch(50% 60 30)` is medium lightness due to the 50% regardless of the rest of the values of the other coordinates. HSL does not provide this guarantee at all: `hsl(60 100% 50%)` is a very light color (`#ffff00`) and `hsl(240 100% 50%)` a very dark one (`#0000ff`) despite having the same lightness. That's the exact problem these new color spaces are trying to solve: making things *more* predictable. > So the question is: oklab and oklch is great, but why we can't have an okhsl/okhsv for regular people who just want to add some color for their wordpress blog? What would these do? How do you envision they'd work?
