You've discovered my White Whale.

It spells out a CAM16 approximation via 2 matmuls, and you are using as an example of how CAM16 could be improved.

The article, and Oklab, is not by a color scientist. He is/was a video game developer taking some time between jobs to do something on a lark.

He makes several category errors in that article, such as swapping in "CAM16-UCS" for "CAM16", and most importantly, he blends polar opposite hues in cartesian coordinates (blue and yellow), and uses the fact this ends up in the center (gray) as the core evidence for not liking CAM16 so much.

> better color scientists than me

Are you a color scientist?!
