More folks should invest the time to think about what a pictorial depiction should encompass in terms of *invariants* with respect to what they cognized in front of the camera, or their PBR models.
We can clearly show that the idea of colourimetry reproduction is a fatally flawed construct, supported by absolute reams of evidence. Further, it leads to hilariously bad takes of requiring specific colourimetric hardware for a depiction.
Absurdity at its finest.

For folks who are technically savvy, I would encourage someone to consider a flat plane and some camera. Put a lamp source close to the plane and make a record of the quantal interaction. Filter the lamp energy with a “blue” gel. From the camera vantage, there are quantal records that pattern after the energy gradient that falls across the plane. In a pictorial depiction derived from these records, we would have a “shape invariance” emerge if the pictorial depiction is formed reasonably.
