Good heavens, no, Jim. That sounds horrible.
You seem to be a fine fellow, and I'm finding what you say to be both interesting and informative. I do know what a color munki does, I promise, and I do have some grasp on the problems that can be solved with the technologies. And neither those problems nor those solutions are to be sneezed at, they are not trivial at all. There is real value, real utility, here. And that value is actually pretty hard to articulate to lay people.
My issue is that the problems solved by color management are not, as a rule, the problems that lay people who buy color munkis and the like think they solve. I have quite seriously seen people (many of them) who believe that because their workflow is color managed, that they are producing natural looking skin tones. They believe that simply turning on the color management checkbox and building profiles for everything in sight will automatically produce "the right" results, when that isn't even a meaningful idea. When someone points out that all the people in their pictures appear to have been boiled, they quote back RGB numbers and charts which tell them what RGB numbers are in-range for flesh tones. Given that this latter step is completely meaningless (I don't even know where these charts could have come from) I can tell you for sure that the marketing of color management solutions is producing some fairly weird results out there in the real world.
Now, these people are not geniuses, obviously. There are a lot of dunces in the world. But the dunces are getting these weird ideas from somewhere.
Consumer-grade color management is a real system that solves real problems which is, in spite of all that, being sold, purchased, and used, in much the same ways patent medicines were 150 years ago. That's a shame. That's a problem.
This thread, with respect to those of you actually trying to contribute information, is an excellent illustration of why.
