Worked in the industry for most of my career. Went from p.a. to engineer in charge.
The issue you're talking about is mistaking a CMYK or RGBB color space vs RGB - very small diff in the GUI, but vast diff in color rendering. Fun to watch as long as you're not on that crew.
For our purposes, it's about ppfd - studio lights can easily achieve the ppfd we need, but you will need a 480 amp 3 phase power supply and studio AC to go with it - the heat can be incredible, even in LED set ups.

Funny, yesterday I was talking with a friend about (studio) lighting, and we both wondered about using a studio fixture to grow and came up with:
Tungsten, Xenon, HMI, - too much heat management unless you have AC & high ceilings.
LED - heat is still an issue - the panels are large. BUT for about $6,500, there are some 1,500w (true) units that just might work - if money is no object...
