If you have a standardized and solid workflow, you might be able to do a surprising amount, if not all, of what you need to do without ever seeing the work on a good display.

Begging the question, why calibrate and profile the display in the first place?

Color numbers can produce incorrect color previews, that's either an issue to resolve or it isn't. Heck, I can do a ton of work in Photoshop on a grayscale display! When time comes to soft proof or make important decisions on color and tone, I want the best calibration and profile that are built to match to my output under my print viewing station next to the Mac).
