Photoshop’s color management and in fact, you’ve used an apples to

I think Andrew that you're being rather hasty in launching a counter-attack
at what you perceive to be an "attack" on Adobe, rather than at least
trying to understand what the OP might be talking about first.
You're assuming that the OP was making a comment about Adobe's CMM,
and only the CMM. Perhaps instead he was making a comment about
the overall conversion environment that Photoshop presents. Within
that environment there are a limited number of options. There's a bunch
of profiles to choose from, and fundamentally all you can do is
make use of the pre-computed transforms encapsulated within
those profiles. The most dynamic thing it's capable of
is selecting the intent or applying BPC. (To be fair, ICCV4
perceptual/saturation transforms may be something that gives
a better result that Martin hasn't tried).
The point is that while it's perfectly reasonable for Photoshop
to provide this level of capability, it's not a color management
application, although I'd imagine that many users make the mistake
of thinking it is.
(ie. it doesn't create profiles, it uses profiles).
