I don't agree with this view. Colour has two properties - hue and luminance, but neither is mentioned in either the normative text or the Understanding page. Only colour is mentioned.

F73 incorrectly states that hue is the same as colour and that luminance is not colour. This appears to be the only reference to hue, and it is factually wrong as well as being non-normative.
