>It seems like people are misunderstanding the approach here.

Considering the part that quotes the original post is missing the whole "Pantone colour" bit, I feel like the post was edited afterwards.

I added the part in brackets afterwards to prevent further misunderstanding, but it doesn't change the meaning of the post, which was just to move the actual color definition out-of-band.

I have a terrible tendency to hit the send button too soon and then update the post multiple times with typo fixes and clarifications...

It changes the meaning massively. The original was just "pick a CMYK colour and then tell them what kind of paint you want it printed with", the latter is "pick a CMYK colour and then tell them what it actually need to look like".

"What kind of paint you want it printed with" assumed that it's already after matching it to whatever Pantone definition you're after given the materials/conditions/printing method etc., otherwise you're quite obviously not going to get the result you want.
