Not disagreeing that usage in large productions is something that Blender isn't really designed for, but I don't think that it's for a lack of Python API features (if a studio wants something specific it could just maintain a

I know you're looking for something more universal, but in modern video workflows you'd apply a chain of color transformations on top the final composited image to compensate the display you're working with. So I guess try se

macOS is the only OS you can write native applications for. On Linux there are with GTK and QT two different GUI frameworks that could be considered native on some distros. And on Windows there are so many different frameworks and approache

For final export? AVIF, JpegXL, maybe even WebP (lossless mode). PNG kinda sucks for high resolution stuff because decoding is extremely slow. The way PNG does lossless compression also only really works with flat graphic design, anything w

It's annoying, but not for the error handling. To the contrary, I think the error handling is actually improved by this pattern. If you manually convert beforehand you easily run into working with a Result<Result<T, E>, E>.

It's definitely pretty annoying, though not because of the errors. Actually the errors might be the biggest benefit even. If the conversion fails I can't continue with the function call.

It definitely does on macOS and I think also on Windows. You have to set the color management for the viewport to Display P3. In older versions this precluded you from using AGX or Filmic, but I think you can actually use AGX with Display P
