Yellowish display: Question.

I am one of the lucky owners of MBP with AU Optronics yellowish display.

Till two days ago I thought that the yellowish experience was limited to a slightly yellowish cast present on the bottom part of the screen. But my monitor *is not* able to reproduce a gradient from black to white by showing only grays.

I calibrated the monitor 6 times. Using each single profile the gradient image here:

contains a yellow (not yellowish, but YELLOW) part (I can put the image on the top part of the screen and it is still yellow). Different profiles just move/shrink/expand the yellow region in the image.

Is this the normal within-specs behaviour of the yellowish AUO MBP display? Do I have one of the worst AUO yellowish display? Wasn't the MBP display one of the best for image processing on a notebook? Was I dreaming when I (thought to have) read that?

Do you think that the uncapability to show grays is a good reason to get the screen exchanged?
