Yes, but you spoke of a "large gamut device" on which sRGB would fail my
"looks nicer" test. I'm not aware of any such devices. sRGB was developed
specifically to accommodate the poor gamut of the average CRT display, in
fact. It would certainly be nice to have a monitor that could fully display
Wide Gamut RGB.

All printers, even excellent ones, have pretty dismal gamuts.
