Showing color X on TVs by actually making the thing color Y in the studio, well, filming, not bullshit. It's an intentional choice playing out as intended. It is meant to communicate a particular thing and does so.
That particular thing was not intentional, and is the reason why the (same color in person, different material) command wrap uniform that is supposed to be color-matched to the made-as-green uniforms isn’t on screen.
But, yes, in general inaccurate color reproduction can be intentionally manipulated with planning to intentionally create appearances in photos that do not exist in reality.
