Your wrong on the RGB scale but right on the CMYK. RGB is based on light so the less light you have the darker no light is black (Or at least how our eyes perceive it) CMYK would be inks (more in line with physical art) so the more you add the deeper the color but if you add everything you get black as it is the deepest (Most absorbing of light). The running assumption is RGB scale for the choco which is why the semantic of lighten and deepen are part of the argument because it really changes how you look at the numerical value.
