To recap, PL generates a new set of color numbers in lieu of the original set of color numbers in the target. This target is then printed on the device, and hopefully the measurements made from the modified target will make the profiling software work more efficiently to describe the behavior of the device.
Yep, you've got it. Except, I don't where you are getting this pre-linearization term from. I think that term could lead to confusion since it isn't a step that's previous to any linearization. It is, in fact, done after linearization. But in no way this "linearizes" anything.
It certainly doesn't change anything prior to profiling like any other linearization process does. Once you have the final profile, though, you're output is likely to be better linearized. It does help linearize but not in the way we are used to. Again, perhaps better terminology would help avoid confusion.
