It should be noted that ISO's TR001 is a data set used to build

This is 100% correct. The gamut mapping and black generation are
specific to each profiling tool. For instance, FOGRA's idea is to
publish the ISO data and leave it up to the user to load the data and
configure a production profile, instead of FOGRA posting finished
profiles the way the FOGRA site did to begin with. But the point is
that we know the conditions that must be met for such a profile to be
a valid process description. Because those conditions are documented.
This is not like the sort of undocumented profiles that
conventionally ship with Photoshop, and which should basically not be
used.
Also there is yet another difference between a standard profile
(meaning a profile from standardized data sets and documented
printing conditions) and a profile for an optimized workflow.
