But don't you think, the Blue spectrum will be much higher than Red?
The way Kelvin is calculated for light sources makes it impossible for anyone to say anything about the color of the light if you only have the Kelvin-measure. Look at the Planckian locus:
Color temperature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The problem is that the locus is not just a fine line but a very broad line. Look for example at the 10000K mark - it spans colors from green to blue to white to purple.
