I think you are confusing the issue. Some monitor profiles (custom ones in
particular) may not be perfectly *gray-balanced*. But none of the standard
working spaces is linear, just *none* of them. In other words, none of them
has a gamma of 1.0. Yet, they are all gray-balanced.

Again: *none* of the standard Photoshop working spaces is linear.

It has very much the same 2.2 gamma as sRGB. How does that make it "more
linear"?

What "power curve", Mike?
