Actually the point I was making is quite simple. Unless the pixel has been adjusted to appear correct in that display space, or very carefully converted to that display space so it appears correct, then it can be any random value at all. As others have pointed out, multiple transformations are not usually a perfect "round trip" so it is best to do all the work with the master image in one colorspace.
