I agree, but in the case of colors and of depth perception, I
also think that real-time real-life perceptions also provide
a "training" or "bias-source" as well.  At least in terms
of "accuracy" if not in terms of what one likes.

But then, if done from memory, I suspect that human-memory tends
to increase color saturation -- so it may match Fuji's chromes
better than other films.  :-)
