Research direction

Start with the “Color Basics and Channels” article linked in the issue and review the referenced ImageMagick discussion for the distinction between color models and color spaces. Update that article to define both terms and explain their difference without causing confusion; the work is done when the new explanation is clear and consistent with the referenced discussion.

Description

Hi,

In the Color Basics and Channels article there's no notion of "color model", only "color space". Since those are different things, and also taking into account this post, where @snibgo (one of the developers, IIUC) says: Most "colorspaces" are really colour models [...], to avoid confusion "color model" and its difference from "color space" should perhaps be explained in article linked above.
