If your whole surround (the whole room, not just your desk top) is really as
bright as your monitor, then you may want to calibrate your monitor to a
lower gamma value, down as far as 2.2, so that the overall system is 1:1.
But if your surround really is that bright and the images do not look dark
to you, you are not suffering any problems with the standard settings.

And is correspondingly outdated ...
But that does not answer the question, anyway:
Even if I accept the argument of these awe-inspiring television studio
scientists that television studios are brighter than the environment of my
TV set, what does all this have to do with color management on computers? My
computer is used in a much brighter environment than my TV set and I do not
use it to reproduce content recorded in television studios sooooo ..... ?
