No, #FFF is white, and it's up to the client to decide what white should look like.

Arguing that we should use, say, #CCC for white, is like saying that instead of rating things out of a 100, you should rate them out of 70 instead. All you've done is narrow the scale.

#CCC is grey - one of many greys .

Nope. Nobody is talking about what colour is white, but contrast that is forced upon user that hurts eyes.
