Remember, we are not talking about calibrating and profiling these monitors, simply measuring the raw values of the primaries, which is best done with a good lab meter and no profiles involved.
And that would be useful in what way?
In measuring the primaries of the devices for comparison to other monitors. We are so ICC focused that the first thing we think of is building a profile, and then using the return table from that profile to view the theoretical gamut. But that misses the obvious: that the primaries can be compared as raw color values on screen (255, 0, 0/ 0, 255, 0/ 0, 0, 255), without the several layers of processing that the profile comparison method involves. Simply: how red a red, how green a green, and how blue a blue can this monitor produce, without the complications of all the other stuff. Since the Cap Y basicly describes monitor luminance, these values can be compared as little x, little y values.
