Seems there are a few people who believe that setting a lower peak brightness and paper white or average luminance helps with abl/dimming and even clipping. Logically it sort of makes sense, you’re kinda freeing up the power budget (NPC?), but I’ve seen others say this is not the case or in reality has an opposite effect, especially on full screen brightness.

Unfortunately it isn’t something you can reliably test by eye, since the ABL is pretty bad to begin with monitors.

Specifically for brightness limited oleds (eg TB400/TB500), is there any testing or proof to this claim? Would like to hear an expert or professional’s thought on this. TIA.
