If we are born with colour blindness , why can’t the brain adapt to the eye? If the baby is told by the parent this is blue and the child sees something else they will learn it as blue right?

There is less color information to work with… I am partially color blind and have no issue with pure colors, but have issues detecting where tone is similar but with added color. No problem with blue, but can only tell it’s purple if in context of comparing to blue to notice variation. Similar for things like dark greens vs. browns. Or sometimes something like a light orange vs. bright green… I’m thinking specifically like those odd concept car colors you see on futuristic cars at auto shows. I can tell it’s a bright color and has a yellow component along with other colors but sometimes can’t sus out whether it’s red or blue in addition.
