variations where film is more forgiving. An old wives tale?
I'd go along with that. Not so long ago did a wedding on 120 and digital. The film coped with a room with daylight, tungsten and fluorescent lighting: The digital shot on an SI exhibits some strange variations. I realised that a custom white balance would only be valid for one area of the room so I left the camera on auto balance - good job I had film.
Just as we now have area specific levels of compression will we in the future have variable area colour balance?
