In fact, the full polynomial of tca_correct uses to give me worse results than the simple linear model realised by Darktable's TCA sliders. tca_correct may yield sub-optimal results, but the linear results are often really pleasing. Then, when I read about 4th order polynomials with mixed terms, I'm really tempted to call this over-engineered. ;-) That said, I like an automatic approach -- Adobe had good reason to abandon profile-based TCA correction. By the way, does Stéphane Gimenez read this list? I didn't have him on CC.
