That is not the case with a OSC. Only 1/3rd or so of the pixels are producing signal in R, G or B.
The signal in a mono camera is higher as a result of all of the pixels being used and producing a spectrum specific read-up charge.
In short....mono sensors are more sensitive.

So...what you’re saying is that a mono sensor, with a colour filter over the pixels, is more sensitive than the same sensor with a colour filter array over it? At the pixel level? Are you sure about that?
