Accidentally deleted Color LCD profile

I was tinkering with the display profiles and accidentally deleted the Color LCD profile, not realizing that it was the default color profile of the MacBook Pro. Is there a way for me to undo this? I'm running a 13-inch 2017 model.

Also, is Color LCD and Display P3 the exact same profiles but with different names?

ColorSync Utility > Devices > Displays = has no Color LCD (NEED URGENT HELP WITH THIS) So I mistakenly deleted some integral parts of my MacBook's Library from Terminal (With Sudo integrated OmniDiskSweeper) because I initially wanted to free up some space, which turns out has the ICC profile(s) stored there. I didn't know if removing those ICCs will affect my screen. I have asked some of my Mac user friends to click on Command + Space to type ColorSync Utility, told them to click Devices then Displays---AND ALL OF THEM WOULD HAVE Color LCD stored meanwhile mine is gone and the screen gets more blue (Not warm, and it fatigues the eyes honestly). I would really appreciate it if you guys could help me out with this. I just need to get that Color LCD back on my Mac so the screen would be bearable to look at as usual. Below are two examples of my friend's MacBooks. Their screens are fine, not that tiring to be looked at. At the drop down button/bullet when clicking Displays they have Color LCD on Display, Mode and current profile. Now this one below is mine.

Restarting the computer seemed to do the trick. Color LCD just popped right back up. I am still wondering, though, if Color LCD (the default setting) is the same as Display P3.
