sRGB vs. Adobe 1998 -- I'm looking for an argument.

Hi Everybody,
I'm in a bad mood because I had a big fight with Ellie.  She doesn't have  to rub it in just because she is smarter than me.

So let's debunk the myth that Adobe1998 has a huge gamut advantage over sRGB.  It goes along with the myth that most greens are out of gamut for both of these color spaces.
I'm certain that these myths were created to advance a political agenda or just to enable some smart alec to tell you about them.

It's like profiles.  An absolute profile is more accurate but a perceptual profile is more pleasing.

Yes. Adobe RGB's color space is slightly larger than sRGB's color space.  However, sRGB is more pleasing to the eye.  Neither one seriously omits green.  Both omit some of the cyan

The differences are better shown in the Luv color space than in the XYZ color space.  Here's the long and short of it as once revealed on the internet.  It's been surpressed by the color police so I can no longer find the link.
