That's a deal-breaker. Don't buy this bulb. It will make everything look awful.

"CRI is not a good indicator for use in visual assessment, especially for sources below 5000 kelvin (K)."

Bulbs in question are 2700K and 5000K. Does your conclusion still hold?

2700k isn't bad, but 5000k? That's grow light spectrum. I've seen people complain over the "too whiteness" of 3000k bulbs never mind 5000k.
