Arthur...
Am truncating your message to cut down bandwith :)... but you've basically
(technically!) summed up the reasons why it's best to NOT work in near
darkness...
The only part i disagree to a wee bit with you is when you say:
"The only time I ever work in nearly complete darkness is when I am
setting up Adobe Gamma, which requires it to determine the true maximum
black of the monitor"
Adobe Gamma should ideally be set up - from all i've read - in your working
light environment. Unless (you mean) you're trying to set calibrate the
(hardware) monitor for it's White Point.
Cheers...
