I do film color work as part of my job. It's nuts how many hoops one has to jump over to give proper, almost proper, image experience on a variety of viewing devices. It's akin to sound mastering.
When there are gradients visible, more or less the only thing you can do is to introduce artificial monichromatic noise to the image to hide the perception of a staggered gradient.
I would like to see an industry-wide push for consumer-grade (at least) 10-bit signal chain from graphics cards to monitors with high dynamic range. That would have more impact on image quality than crap being pushed for now, like 4k and VR.
HDR B4 4K, chaps!
