That's not necessarily true and what does "enrich the gamut" mean? Providing
intermediates does not increase the gamut. Talking about crayons is a stupid
discussion, because it's a poor analogy for gamut, but I'll bet that a box
of 8 crayons covers the gamut and the box of 64 just provides intermediates
and does not increase the gamut.
