Color Spectrum

Lucy saw her first rainbow yesterday.
Lucy: "I don't see any indigo in that rainbow."
Me: "Well, maybe this rainbow doesn't have indigo."
Lucy:  "But the song from Cat in the Hat goes, red, orange, yellow, then green followed by blue, INDIGO and violet, that's the rainbow song for you.  Not, red, orange, yellow then green followed by PURPLE."

Really?  Whose idea was it to include indigo in the color spectrum?  Have they defended their position to a 4-year-old?  Because I'd like to be a witness to that conversation.
