That’s amusing because I am the converse: my boundary is bluer than 98% of the population. To a first approximation, blue is a very specific thing and all the other colors appear strongly non-blue to me. I do wonder where this preference came from, but it explains all the puzzling interactions between my wife and I over the years.

That's fascinating. I think this has to be biological. When I call something blue I don't think it has to do with just what I've learned but also that the color feels more like deep blue than it does like deep green.
