Part of what I do for a living is large-ish (3x4 ft / 1x1.3 m)
color printouts for trial displays. We don't attempt to calibrate our
monitors for that very reason - we know they *will* be distorted. The
proof of the pudding is in the eating, and what we care about is the
print appearance, not the monitor.

(This has certainly drifted from 'suckless file manager'.)
