Brian, It's not for my satisfaction, it's for yours, and yes it does matter. And it matters that you use a color managed browser like Safari or FF and embed working space profiles in your files. And no, the browsers do not limit color gamut at all. They either throw RGB straight to the screen if they're not color managed or they filter through your own monitor profile - y'know the drill - source profile converted to destination profile - or in this case, sRGB converted to your screen profile since the screen is the destination device.
And calibration might indeed open up the shadows if your uncalibrated monitor is currently crushing the shadow details, but without seeing the aforementioned step wedges from your screen, we'll never know. Did you try the step wedge test I outlined in the previous post? Where was the point you lost separation, and you forgot to mention how you're calibrated right now. Is there a reason you are so resistant to the concept? I mean, seriously. I've been hardware calibrating screens for a full quarter century now and know just how important it is.
At this point, I'm really writing this to help others who might not understand yet but I'm holding out a smidgeon of hope for you too.
