On another forum, I read from someone:

"Calibration tries to get the display (which should be sRGB by default)
as close as possible to real sRGB".

You may choose to target sRGB, or you may choose to target some other
response. As other replies have noted, only some aspects
of sRGB can be emulated using standard per-channel lookup curves,
namely the white point and transfer curve characteristics.

You can't fully emulate sRGB without matching, or wider gamut
primaries and some more sophisticated calibration/mapping mechanism
than per-channel lookup curves.
