>>Yes, but again, how much of this variation in individual visual makeup gets
compensated for by our visual system, so that we adapt to both white
neutrality and scene luminance?>>
Yes, you're likely correct. In fact a study has shown that people with significant differences in cone distribution in their fovea still perceived color similarly due to compensatory mechanisms in the brain, which might indicate more than just white point and luminance adaptation..

Still, with all the physiological differences between our own eyes, and that of others, coupled with instrumentation and mathematical inconsistencies, it would seem that color "by the numbers" will currently only go so far.
