You don't get my point. In practice nowadays nobody cares what the W3C 
did recommend a long time ago when monitors where CRT's and smartphones 
where not invented yet.
The color space of the majority of viewing devices currently used is not 
even close to sRGB and with upcoming 4k displays and even HDR displays 
for the consumer market they get even farer away. And as I mentioned 
before, this does not make just a subtle difference.
This was also not a personal request of mine (I know about the problems 
very well and can work around it if I want to), it is an advice for 
everybody who cares about what others will see if they look at an image 
one might have created with a lot of effort.
So what you call a bullshitty implementation is what I call a necessary 
step in the right direction.
