Same for video editors. If really accurate color rendition is needed, for use with a USB based color calibration device, there's definitely a whole other class of monitors people will be looking at. Quite a bit more expensive for the same amount of screen area than "regular" office grade/consumer grade monitors.
Something like my LG 43 inch is definitely in the latter category, it's under 500 bucks for its size, vs probably $900+ for something of the same size that can do precise color matching.
