The CMY color model is a subtractive color model in which cyan, magenta and yellow pigments or dyes are added together in various ways to reproduce a broad array of colors. The name of the model comes from the initials of the three subtractive primary colors: cyan, magenta, and yellow.
The CMY color space, as ColorAide Extras has chosen to implement it, is directly calculated from the sRGB color space, and as such, is based off the sRGB primaries.

Input/Output
CMY is not currently supported in the CSS spec, the parsed input and string output formats use the color() function format using the custom name --cmy:
color(--cmy c m y / a) // Color function
The string representation of the color object and the default string output use the color(--cmy c m y / a) form.
>>> Color("cmy", [0, 1, 1])
color(--cmy 0 1 1 / 1)
>>> Color("cmy", [0, 0.35294, 1]).to_string()
'color(--cmy 0 0.35294 1)'
