IMO a standards-based test chart has advantages over non-standard test
charts, and the ECI2002 test chart which is an IT8.7-3 super-set should
where possible be used in place of the IT8.7-3 which has always
attracted criticism for the way it samples a print color space.

As the IT8.7-3 and ECI2002 charts are / are going to become standards,
the systematic layout (as opposed to scrambled layout) won't go away.
It seems to be a concept built into the standards process -:). But on
the other hand there is no compelling reason to use a good test chart
in a maybe less practical way.

I would choose the scrambled layout. Long-winded reasoning, one-line
conclusion.
Henrik, can you help me out here - my Colorsync translator just crashed with
this post. ;-). Starting with standards-based testcharts having advantages,
moving on to the limitations of the (standard) IT8.7-3 (big jumps going from
70 to 100%, for example), on to no compelling reason to use a test chart in
a less practical way (why is it less practical?), and concluding with the
scrambled being the best choices despite the unscrambled being the soon to
be standards, is not too clear. As not an over enthusiast of standards, I
see we have reached the same conclusion, but from very different roads.
Regards.
