I used to work in a paint lab. You are correct, oklch seems to be based off CIELCh.

Our eyes are much more sensitive to Blue/Violet, and less sensitive to green. There's a bunch of maths behind the perceived responses of our eyes.

If you're interested you can calculate perceived differences in the LCh colorspace using something like CIEDE2000.(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Color_difference#CIEDE2000)

A Rainbow with equal DE between colors would probably look better than this one with equal DL.
