Not at all! I'm saying that it's not Adobe's role to supply output profiles
to all manner of devices. And those they do supply work well when the
devices and the profile match. Otherwise you have to roll your own or find
another profile.

PS has a superb SWOP profile WHEN the device you send the converted file to
actually behaves as the profile predicts (TR001). So a feather in Adobe's
cap for providing that and other profiles that work equally as well when
conditions are correct. So a condition doesn't behave as the profile was
built and we are supposed to blame Adobe? I think not.

I don't disagree but what do you expect Adobe to do? They simply can't
supply profiles for every device (even every concealable press condition)
when somewhere, someone will be printing differently and the profile will
get blamed.
What CAN Adobe do? Something I've asked for years of them, make it capable
of editing an existing profile (just like LinoColor could do). Adobe doesn't
want to go down that route and it's their call.
