No.

Linear is not a colour space, as a properly defined colour space, as per the ISO specification, is:

- A well defined transfer function.

- Properly described primary light chromaticities.

- Properly defined white point colour.

Where you reference "there are many such color spaces" is the issue. Linear specifically relates to the first point, and even that doesn't properly describe whether one is speaking of display linear or scene linear.

The other points relate to perceptually uniform discussions, which would be a misuse of the term linear.

I agree that it is not a suitable forum for color theory. “Linear” however, is a much confused subject, worthy of explanation.
