Well that could be something that is useful in a softproofing context,
but using Photoshop (or anything else that uses Adobe's ACE CMM) it's
also not possible, because around a decade ago Adobe decided they would
no longer support absolute colorimetric for RGB display profiles (you
can select it, but it'll use relative colorimetric behind your back).

Absolutely.
