+   *  When a color is specified with only one parameter (e.g., `color(g)`), p5.js will interpret it
+   *  as a grayscale color. However, how that single parameter translates into a grayscale value
+   *  depends on the color mode:
+   *
+   * - `RGB, HSB, and HSL`: The single value will be used consistently for the gray equivalent 
+   *    in each of these modes (for example, mapping to red/green/blue channels equally in RGB).
+   *
+   * - `LAB, LCH, OKLAB, and OKLCH`: The single value is taken to be the `lightness (L)` component,
+   *   with the specified max range for that channel.
+   *
+   * - `HWB`: Grayscale relies on both the` whiteness (W)` and `blackness (B)` channels. Since
+   *   a single value cannot directly account for two distinct channels, the library uses an
+   *   average of their max values to interpret the single grayscale parameter. For instance,
+   *   if W has a max of 50 and B has a max of 100, then the single grayscale parameter
+   *   is mapped using (50 + 100) / 2 = 75 as its effective maximum. More complex or negative
+   *   ranges are currently not handled, so results in those cases may be ambiguous.
