> sometimes misleadingly called tone mapping

sometimes is an understatement there. It took me like a decade to get that shit right. Graphics in general seems to suffer from bad explanations repeated everywhere. We need more authoritative textbooks.

I think the problem is that terminology for graphics programming was reinvented without asking color scientists. Unfortunately common in our industry where solutions are created without proper research of existing alternatives.
