exactly. And when Apple decides that all untagged data should be their
particular flavor of Generic RGB and the rest of the planet chooses
sRGB then the data displayed in Panther looks different from how that
vast majority of others will see and print it. What's "correct"
doesn't really matter here. You can argue till the cows come home how
your Generic RGB and a 1.8 gamma might be "better" in this situation
where as you say there is no right answer, but what we're all really
after is consistency. Your system is a distinct move away from
consistency and mindless color management, not a step towards it.
