I just checked the Xrite site, and under the specs. for the i1pro3 it lists
M3 polarized measurements. Not sure exactly what it means since I don't own
it, but it might have that built in with the LED light source.
As to the benefits of polarized sampling, we never seemed to need it before
with our old i1, Pulse, DTP22, etc. devices. I'd need to use that feature
extensively before I would say it matters. It should not matter, but I
could be wrong. I certainly am not worrying myself about it, but I'm also
not mankind profiles for other people anymore.

If you want Chromix results you need to get a spectro that supports M3meaurements. I
don’t believe that Argyll supports this at present and you would need tobuy an
instrument for Graeme as well or use some other software.
You can do this if you have access to a spectroscan. Of course you can also
import measurements from other instruments into Argyll using txt2ti3

[ As far as I'm concerned, "Polarized measurements makes shadow detail
better" is in the same category of myth as "Using a UV filter makes
FWA/OBE problems go away". It might do so sometimes by accident, but
reality is more complex than that, and ultimately you are better off
understand what's actually going on rather than depending on random
magic. ]
