You've missed the core of the argument, along with just about everyone commenting and the author of the post as well. It doesn't matter what his gamma settings are - he's saying that all of these films collectively lose something by looking the same. He's not critiquing how any ONE film is graded.

Maybe it's not surprising how you all have gotten so lost in the minutia of color spaces, digital sensors and so on since you keep identifying as "nerds" - sometimes you have to take a step back to see some of the broader trends (as this video does).
