Roy, I think your reasoning is here is pretty good, but it misses one point that is heavily dependent on the monitor and not on the person... the gamut of the monitor. I have two displays -- the main one built into the iMac, and a second display, a cheap 3 year-old Samsung. Despite scoring a 4 in a quick attempt on the iMac display, followed by a 0 when I took a little more time (about 10 minutes) on the same display, I cannot score better than a 12 on the Samsung display. It just does not provide enough color differentiation in the greens to distinguish some of them from each other. If I move the window back over onto the iMac monitor, I can then sort it all out without much trouble.
