Thanks for the interesting link.
A quote from the EBU-tech3320:
“The television system has been deliberately designed with an end-to-end system gamma of about 1.2, to provide compensation for the ‘dim surround’ effect [6]. Therefore the Tech 3320 User requirements for Video Monitors in Television Productionmonitor gamma is not, and never has been, the inverse of the camera gamma.”
I guess that’s within the meaning of the creators of Rec 709.
But anyway – if your clients like to watch a display gamma 2.2, you better switch your dislay to 2.2
