This is a comment I wrote a while ago on a post specifically about the ability of visible to evaporate water. I thought some of the info was relevant to the meme but I can see how some of it wouldn’t really fit or make sense.
As for all the things you pointed out
Highest proportion of energy from the sun that plants absorb* should have specified that and its on me.
Second point is pure speculation and conjecture and is not intended to be a statement of fact
I really recommend reading that source I linked. I am in no way an expert, its just a topic I hyperfocused on and researched for a few days. I did confirm details with my gf who is a hort major and does understand these things but she is also an undergrad. Its a very cool topic and I’m excited to read that article you mentioned after my DND session
I couldn’t find it on anna’s archive either but I also couldn’t invest too much attention rn. If you find a link could you comment it here? Im gonna keep looking as well later and will do the same

Plants absolutely use green light for photosynthesis and do it quite well.

Green Light Drives Leaf Photosynthesis More Efficiently than Red Light in Strong White Light: Revisiting the Enigmatic Question of Why Leaves are Green
Green light is in fact absorbed at a rate of 80-90%, and it penetrates much deeper than red or blue. Comparison
