If I understand how the cones receive and send color signals to the brain properly, blue takes a lot of brain processing power as it magnifies the low blue cone number to blend it into the perceived image. This may be a way to filter out the blue to lighten the processing load on the brain. I'd love to hear the neuro-ophthalmologist's explanation.
