I confirm that generally XYZ-LUT profiles are tend to significant banding in
real use. The banding is preventing the use of -ax key for display or camera
profiling. The quality of such profiles is unacceptable (ArgyllCMS V1.0.4. I've
didn't try -ax with latest versions). IMHO, much more smoothing is needed for
XYZ data in the darks, may be in overall.
