Is the difference between a color blind person and a non-color blind person much like the difference between trichromats and tetrachromots (like some birds)? Does color blindness raise a similar issue as the inverted spectrum and the puzzle of true blue?Explain

A different question (for a possible other paper topic) concerns the veridicality of color experiences had by the color blind. One can imagine a view that says that the color blind misperceive color. But there is another possible view, that although their color experience differs, those experiences are not misperceptions.

Many of the issues we discussed about color and color experience intersect with this question and could help address it.
