Also a cool thing about imaginination, is you don’t have to stick to or define all the parameters to imagine it. You can go like, I’m imagining in this imaginary senario I’ve figured that part out, and just run with it.
True, but when we say we can’t imagine something, we don’t mean a mental construct that we don’t think through, we mean something tangible. In case of color, it means actually seeing it mentally.

That sounds self imposed.

Nah, just two different meanings of “imagine”.
One is to imagine a color
And the other to imagine there is a color.
