actually, to follow along that line of reasoning, recommending that the recording of images according to stimuli patterns of the eye, to its logical conclusion, what needs to be recorded should also take into account how the brain would interpret the colour...
You are offering the brain a tristimulus (set of 3 values). There is not much left that you can reduce without gross effects (such as throwing away one value and simulating colour blindness).
this would probably deal more with colour gradation and colour contrast (not luminance contrast) within the gamut rather than absolute accuracy (and what is absolute accuracy... see next point)
Ah... no, even then you don't escape from the sensitivity curves. Human eyes, just like film or camera sensors, suffer from metamerism, i.e. different spectra give rise to the same colour. If you do not follow the spectral sensitivity of the eye, you'll end up with the situation that two objects may look the same colour to the human eye, but turn out very different in the photograph. The human brain is not very good at identifying specific colours, but it can be very good at spotting differences in colour. This is a well-known problem with cameras that deviate a lot from the human eye (e.g. the Leica M8 where you have to correct the flawed sensor response with an optical filter).
Following the spectral sensitivity of the eye is the only objective method of recording colour (apart from recording a full spectrum), everything else involves arbitrary trade-offs that can make things only worse, never better.
on the other hand, to talk about accuracy, one would have to record a scene with as much fidelity as possible rather than make assumptions about eye or brain processing... because colour processing does vary in the individual, as evidenced at the most extreme by those who are colour blind (who are not so much blind to colour but process colours differently)
Differences in how the brain processes the information do not matter. But it is true that there is variability between individuals when it comes to colour vision: one is due to genetic variations (i.e., the spectral sensitivity of the cones differ), the other due to the filtering effect of the eye (which may have slight discolorations). So yes, the entire idea of reproducing colours with three primaries is based on a "standardized" human eye, and it breaks down once you take these differences into account.
However, for a large majority, these differences are rather minor. If you reject this standardisation, then no photographic image that doesn't record spectra (e.g. Lippmann's interferometric colour process) is capable of good colour reproduction. In particular, all the colour management people love to talk about is utterly pointless, because it is based on the same standard model for human colour perception.
Anyway, my main reason for writing all this is to point out that a strong spectral overlap of "red" and "green" sensors is not a flaw, but a necessity.
