 Weber is nothing more than a log of the stimulus to a reference. While it is true that at the very beginning of the early research into perceptual contrast, APCA research lead _once_ referred to Weber as the "gold standard for contrast of text", but to clarify, that applied specifically and only to dark text on a light background, and at or near the _threshold_ JND. Weber becomes increasingly invalid as there is departure from those parameters. It should be mentioned that Weber is roughly 180 years old. In the 1960s, Stevens pointed out how Weber was flawed, and presented the power curve solution. More recently, Poynton pointed out that perception curves were more of a hybrid between log and power curves.

 But also, the claim that it is monotonic is wrong. Lc 45 through Lc 90 moves in increments of 15. But using Math.exp() this changes with every level. And this is not even adding in the other corruption that xi introduced with the other unapproved changes made. This removes the perceptual uniformity and this does not provide a valid comparison to WCAG2, and the purpose here is not at all clear.

-*FALSE*. And these spurious statements are what makes this frustrating. Ambient light is not the operant difference by any stretch of the imagination. Such statements underline the lack of understanding of the subject matter. The ACTUAL contribution is perceptual uniformity, which is REQUIRED for the advancement of automated color technologies.
