iccdump -v3 -trXYZ -tgXYZ -tbXYZ 3008WFP-D65-2.2-smatrix.icm
XYZArray:
  No. elements = 1

Althought I don't understand, the Lab space should represent all the human

This takes longer than I have patience for, stopped the process after 5
minutes. I don't have "state-of-the-art" system but quad-core Q9550@xxxxxx
should be still fast enough.
Just FYI.
