Is the Old LinearFit Tool Better For Color Than SPCC

If you are a PixInsight user, have you been trying to get color from mono data and feeling let down by spectrophotometric color calibration?  There is a problem with SPCC. It frequently yields washed out colors like salmon-pink reds and drab, faded blues.  So, how does it compare against the color gotten from the older LinearFit tool?  We'll put SPCC and LinearFit to a side-by-side test using the same information and processing of vdB 132.  When SPCC is weighed and measured against LinearFit, it is found wanting.
