And speaking subjectively, I have always preferred HSV because I came to color from the background of mixing pigments (painting). Adding white to a pigment to desaturate it (make it more pastel) is intuitive with paints ... as is adding black to darken a pigment.

HSV (and Okhsv) more closely match my painterly intuition.

HSV and not HSL for that mental model? That's surprising to me—I thought the tint/shade system would lead to wanting to put max-chroma in the middle.
