Description

Can we please, please, please provide utilities to go directly to CIE based colourimetry?

None of the nonsense present at the SIGGRAPH 2022 discussion is valid to support routing through ACES, and in fact @Shootfast made all of the relevant points loudly and clearly, as well as being extremely sound sagely advice.

This notion of "surround" and other nonsense is so frustratingly myopic as to be absolutely distractionary.

In the end, ACES or whatever nonsense being peddled depends on CIE based colourimetry, and CIE based colourimetry does not depend on ACES.

Can we *please* support the basics of CIE colourimetry as all interchange and crossover points? Please? Please?
