Quite right, but we're talking about typical PS working spaces ... whereby
0,0,0 is "absolute" black, 255,255,255 is "absolute" white ... and "neutral"
grays all are defined by R=G=B. They may not be "realistic", but we then
depend on device spaces for going to, or coming from, working space to
"reality".
