Description
Originally raised by @fintelia as part of #346:
A bunch of sections use different terminology, likely because they were written at different times by different people:
Section 4.2: Talks about a "source image" getting transformed into a "reference image", with the former explicitly left out of scope of the spec and the later consisting of dimensionless RGB or RGBA channels with
$2^{sampledepth}$ bits.cHRM chunk: Talks about display primaries "used" in "the image", without indicating whether that's the source image, reference image, or some other image.
sRGB chunk: Now the samples "conform" to a colour space and have a "rendering intent"
cICP and mDCv chunks: TV terminology as mentioned
Section 12.1 This section leans heavily into talking about samples being "light intensities" in an abstract 0-1 range. The concept of > "original scene intensity" is mentioned but glossed over.
transfer function definition: "image luminance", "image samples"
