What no surface can be more colourful than

The MacAdam limits at 4 lightnesses under D65, each computed by sweeping two-transition reflectances over the whole band and keeping those that land at the target luminance factor. This is a physical bound rather than a gamut: a reflectance above 1 is a surface that emits, so no pigment anybody invents will ever put an object colour outside these curves. The boundary shrinks steeply as the surface lightens, from 0.310 at Y = 0.1 to 0.028 at Y = 0.9 — a very light surface has almost no room to be colourful, and that is physics rather than pigment chemistry. Drawn against it is sRGB at the *same* luminance factor rather than as a primary triangle, because a triangle is what a display can reach at some luminance and the bound is what a surface can reach at one; matched properly, sRGB covers 36% at Y = 0.1, 40% at Y = 0.3, 40% at Y = 0.6, 21% at Y = 0.9. The faint triangle is the familiar figure, kept only to show how much it misleads.
