While I agree with the gist of your post, I have to say that

We put ink on paper very well. Unfortunately, the way things come in these
days,
most of the supplied files leave something to be desired. In fact, a good
percentage of
what comes in is just plain junk. And a lot of it came off of "profiled"
monitors
with all their embedded color profiles, from people that think they know
everything there
is to know about color. They don't.

You simply don't have a setup capable of evaluating files that originated outside your closed-loop workflow. I've been through this dozens of times with shops that have setups similar to yours, going to the point of signing waivers that say I'm not going to hold the shop responsible for the results if they just print my friggin' data. And when they DO print my friggin' data, they find that actually what I sent wasn't junk, it was simply outside their typical parameters but nonetheless produced a more-than-acceptable result.

On all other points, I agree.
