I can't explain the photographers or teaching establishments but most
graphic editors work with commercial print media or sRGB,

the ****ty ones might. the better graphic editors do not.

Correct me o learned one: what do they use?


argb, and now dci-p3 is becoming common.


That's a color space and has nothing much to do with the abilities of
the monitor.


false.

neither of
which are worrth a damn when it comes to resolving fine detail in the
shadows.

also wrong.

Even the best of commercial print media is limited in it's ability to
print a really deep black, let alone display subtle variations in deep
grey tonality. You may believe otherwise but there is a fortune
waiting for you if you can prove your claims for a conventional
commercial printing system.


deep black != shadow detail.


But the ability to display subtle variations in in deep grey tonality
does = shadow detail.


false.

Please note that I did say at the beginning "most graphic editors work
with commercial print media or sRGB". I'm not talking about specialty
print techniques.


most ****ty ones do. the better ones do not.


The better ones are not 'most'.


you're contradicting yourself again.

I'm not pursuing this any further.


wise choice.
