What color/style lightsaber would you choose, given a choice? If I have to be canon consistent (color appeared in current canon), white fencing saber (like Dooku's in shape) If I can pick any color, fencing style but magenta

Interestingly, magenta is one of those colors that cannot exist as a pure wavelength of light, only as a mixture between two different wavelengths Whether or not this makes it impossible for a lightsaber to be magenta is unknown

Lightsabres are plasma beams, right? Cos if so, plasma cutters produce a variety of purples (I have no idea how plasma cutters work, so how they make multiple wavelengths is another mystery)pic.twitter.com/P6ms2A4u8d

There's some kind of rule that lightsabers in a pure state emit perfectly white light but you never see white lightsabers because the owner attuning a crystal to their soul during construction causes it to generate a color based on their personality

Which sounds like it's implying that you're making the whole crystal emit light at a specific frequency, but obviously they don't actually go into this

I mean, the layman's term for a lightsaber is canonically a "laser sword" and lasers are by their nature spectrally monochromatic
