Well, do you stringently need that as long it is granted that the RGB
numbers > 0 sent to the monitor still display the same black color on
the screen?

If this is not granted, then I'd suspect a bug [where "same color" does
of course not mean exactly the same value, but within some measurement
tolerances and the numerical tolerances of the algorithm - I'd possibly
accept a difference of say 1...2 delta E as "same black color", also
depending on the reproducibility of colors on the display.

[ Calibration becomes very difficult though, if the monitor's response
is not monotonically increasing; for instance if RGB numbers > 0 sent to
the monitor result in darker output than RGB=0. But in this case more
than ever using RGB numbers > 0 for "black" would be justified, IMO. ]
