The trick OP plays is that they're only working from a single data point (a very particular shade of red) rather than a full spectrum of colors. As soon as you lay out a rainbow for the child, you'll recognize the difference between their perception and the human standard.
Not to be rude but I don't think you understand the post if that is your stance. Adding more colors would not change the scenario at all. If your conscious, internal experience of all the colors is like mine except rotated by one (so that my ROYGBIV is your OYGBIVR) we would still be in 100% agreement about the color of any test object. The experience of color does not affect the test result, as long as it is consistent for each of us: whatever you experience in your mind is always the same in response to 400 nm light, and the same for myself, although my experience is not necessarily identical to your experience.
The above example is not equivalent to "I see 500 nm light and you see 400 nm light". We would both agree on the physical property of the light. The experience is what could, in principle, differ.
How can RGB compose properly edge colour like yellow? Intensity curve would be reversed. Why only the visible spectrum inverted centered on median human visible colour? This is a very human-centric way to think. "Inversion" is not a universal concept.
If your pet dog would like to join the conversation, they can speak up, but until then it is reasonable to focus on the experiences of those who can communicate them to us for the purpose of discussing fundamental blindspots in communication.
The lower wavelength and higher do not mix evenly. Hues will look more like the higher energy short wavelength at swapped values. Vision is also stronger at middle of range to high wavelength end, can see green-yellow better. Computer monitors would mix colours differently for different people and would not reproduce natural colours for some.
If there are differences in cognitive perception of colour they are not so simple as "inversion" and are unknowable with current understanding and do not have much meaning I think. Idea that perception of them is tangible enough to be invertible binary does not make much sense to me. Only Allah SWT can know.

I think color theory demonstrates that this isn't true and it would need to be an inverted rainbow or one of "new" colors in order to stay consistent.
If two people agree that R + G = Y, in no way does that constrain or tell us anything about the conscious experience of each person in relation to those colors, except that it is consistent for each person, but not necessarily between them.
Sure, but are the categories of "warm" and "cool" purely a learned thing or are they an inherent connection in how we perceive things? Someone perceiving V as R and I as V would still get a smooth gradient of colors in terms of addition and subtraction, but that isn't the only thing to consider.

The only way, I'd argue
I'm not sure what you mean

Yes, warm and cool colors are abstract concepts, they are not physical things beyond wavelength.
Abstract or not, they may still be part of a human's psychology
