"The author decided..."
'The author decided' is not physics. Suggest you look at the Wiki page under 'Wavelength': https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_vision
Green: 500 - 590nm, Cyan: 485 - 500nm, Blue: 450 - 485nm.
Color vision theory is far too complicated to discuss here, and I'm not going to debate cyan as a mixed color of blue and green wavelengths versus a fixed wavelength that's in between both of them.
What the author provided was, at best, misleading but nonsense as far as science is concerned.
If the author said he was an artist and presented colors as a preferential list it would have been a different matter.
BTW, I don't mind being voted down (it happens to me regularly), but here those who did are only showing their ignorance. I'd add the author—who penned here—ought to explain his actions in much more detail.
