The result is right, you just expect something else. Remember
that the monitor distorts your perception of the true relations
in the scene. Without assumed_gamma you are seeing a distorted
image.

When using assumed_gamma 1, one tends to build scenes with fixed
contrast ratio so they will look good without post processing.
This limits the scenes somewhat but no more than before. It will
train the eye to see the true relations in a scene, which is
valuable knowledge. It will enable you, with post processing, to
build scenes in a wide range of contrast ratios.
