Exactly. Speaking of the deficiency of the RGB model, it is most apparent when one tries to linearly interpolate colors (for example to construct a gradient). Linear interpolation in the RGB space produces gradients that are noticeably less natural than those in Lab.

It's because what most people call RGB is sRGB, a nonlinear color space. Interpolating in a linear color space is already much better.
