I think your not looking at the chart the right way! If you read the top of the second chart it states the light source! Look at the size of the red at 5500 over the spectrum! It all has to do with were you start and on the ambient light or starting point! Open up Photoshop C2 or C3 and open a raw file! The more temperature you add the redder the light until it goes monochrome!
I work in Photography and as your article states:
"Contrary to what colors we tend to think of as "hot" and "cold", red is actually a cooler temperature than blue according to Kelvin scale. Still, in photographic terms, we refer to bluish light tint photographs as "cool" and reddish light tint photographs as "warm". "
It is what your putting in! The scale is reversed as it is in Photoshop! I know what works! But thanks for the references!
