Does anyone know how this is different to the Munsell color space, which is also perceptually uniform?

Edit: I would imagine that the only way to definine a perceptually uniform color space is by tons of user testing. This is how Munsell developed his color space… specifically presenting test subjects with pairs of identical and near-identical color swatches and asking if they could tell the difference.

In this way, pairwise comparisom of similararity became the bedrock of color perception science.

Oklch is open source and part of the web standard, Munsell colors probably needs a licence to be used ?
