I'll never understand how people can market "More colours" when you get all colours from Red, Green and Amber.

Of course you can. A wider colour gamut means it can produce a wider range of colours than that of the standard sRGB (found in most consumer grade displays), thus being more accurate.

But there is no colour those 3 can't produce.

Red, Green, Amber?  I'm going to assume you mean Red, Green, Blue, which is what additive display technologies use.

RGB is used because it more or less divides the visible spectrum into equal parts, allowing it to create *most* of the colours that humans can see.  Except human eyes don't quite work like that:

More sort of purple-blue, green-yellow, and orange.  This discrepenancy between our eyes and RGB additive techniques does result in colours that your monitor/TV cannot create.

I once found a persistence of vision image online that allowed one to see a colour shade that RGB cannot create.  If I find it, I'll post it.

This. With three colours we can generate the colours inside the triangle they form, so the best we can do is making the triangle as wide as we can placing its vertices in the best possible positions (with the limit that they must lie inside the colour space), but we'd need either infinite base colours along the curved border of the colour space diagram or some nonlinear tech to combine three of them to generate all the colour space.
