I worked at a screen printing plant and to match specific color standards for our ink formulas, we would use a spectrophotometer to measure a swatch in a few different color gamuts. There’s a bunch of standards that each have their pros/cons, but it was a fantastic tool for setting specific lighting scenarios and measuring digital color values from the sample. (Which could later be brought into Adobe for whatever)

Exactly this. In the printing industry, not only the correct ratios of toner mix, but the saturation levels are calibrated with a spectrometer. If the RGB value of a desired color is known (and not just perceived) the output can then be measured for a match.
