Purple is an odd concept too. It’s made up by your brain — purple light doesn’t exist. For whatever reason a combination of 400nm blue and 700nm red looks like whatever purple is to us.
Violet from splitting white light? Do you have a quicky link describing what you're talking about? I'm not up for reading a scholarly treatise on colors, but something that describes it for an idiot would be cool.

All our color spaces only exist in our heads. Where my blue ends and my green begins is probably different than yours. It isn't that our eyes are necessarily different but that we apply labels to what we see based on the language we learn. This is why Munsell color charts and Pantone colors were invented.

Bonus, many animals (mostly birds iirc) have an additional color cone, so they have another of 'red green blue' that they get to experience, unless i'm misremembering all that.
