We’re straying off topic here. I’m not disputing the RGB workflow, I’m talking about what color looks like on screen vs. printed.

In general, do you think that CMYK images and Swatches are closer to print output than RGB?

Hopefully you’re not using RGB Green in a Web-intent InDesign file. Down here in the 19th century trenches, if I get an RGB PDF from a client, I send them back a CMYK proof. Better for them to see the realities on screen, then later when it’s printed.
