Well, if they are running a "SWOP" press these days, under the G7 method, with SWOP2013-compliant inks colorimetry, the SWOPV2 "specification" isn't worth much anymore, Andrew?
I think I'd rather go along with Terry Wyse's suggestion of adopting SWOP2006_C3 (now CGATS21-CRPC5) as the new default for North America in Photoshop than stay for ever with SWOPv2.
See the latest Guide to print production 13.0 here http://www.idealliance.org/products/guide-print-production-13.
It's money well invested.

So why continue to use SWOP at all?
SWOP is a type of press, not a specific press behavior. SWOPV2 as I stated IS a specification for a type of press OUTPUT and behavior based on TR001. One can be running a SWOP press that exhibits TR001 qualities and the guy next store could have a SWOP press that isn't anything like it.
