Nonsensical argument. You're the one going against correct terminology. The burden of "proof" lies with you.
You hint at the idea that we indeed perceive colors differently. But just because i don't know, and cant quite know how "brown" looks for you, the word "brown" is a specific combination of red, green and blue. It doesn't matter if you think other colors also "look" brown.
This is not about burden of proof, it's that you're trying to establish that brown is not dark yellow, which is not possible by giving other examples of what brown is. See: the example I already gave.
As for correct terminology I gave you a peer reviewed citation for mine so I'm content with that. You show no sign of even having read it so goodbye.
