I agree with what you said, I just didn't like how he was acting like it was a mystery why people would think the plant doesn't use green. Seems obvious why they thought that to me.They have proven that plants use plenty of green spectrum. It penetrates deeper into the canopy. And it sparks photosynthesis like all the other usable light. I think the reflecting off of the leaves is how it penetrates dense foliage. Only some is reflected.
Plus leaves are not solid. They are more of a screen or membrane to light. Some is absorbed and some reflected from all color spectrum.
Edit: Sorry for the bad English.. To me it seems obvious why people thought that green light wasn't used by plants.
