OK, now I want 500 more, but
add .001% red," I'll get 2000 identical sheets that are identically
different from the first 2000. Humans may not be able to tell the
difference, but the "color math" can calculate it, and as such, it is a
constant variation. So, it would seem that variants in the same general
color "family" would be perceived as such, regardless how of the
particular species perceives the color itself.

We're homing in on it now-- but I don't think we have any different
understanding, we're just not putting it into words the same way.

Place a third order, only now for an addition of 50% of a color humans
can't see (like a UV protectant, which would reflect UV light). To us, it
would look the same as the first two orders, but to a trout it would look
different. Of course, all normal trout would see the same shade, even if
you showed it to them at various times over a two month period, or if you
folded the paper, etc. The only point anyone is trying to make is that
humans don't have the machinery to tell the difference between order 2 and
order 3, but the difference to the trout is huge.
