The funny thing is that we actually see oxygen, but as a gas it's so dispersed that it's almost fully transparent.
In theory, if you could press enough air into a tight enough volume (like, say, 1 cubic meter of air into a 1 cubic centimeter), you'd get a similar result.
I mean, the reason the sky is blue is due to the atmosphere's effects on light and the fact that it's not fully transparent.
The fact that blue light gets scattered by the atmosphere is due to the fact that there's just so much of it and not bcoz the atmosphere inherently is non-transparent
I love when people are both nitpicky AND wrong
