"Filmmaker mode" is a trademark of the UHD Alliance, so if TV makers want to deviate from the spec they can't call it "Filmmaker mode" anymore. There's a few different TV makers in the UHD Alliance so there's an incentive for the spec to not have wiggle room that one member could exploit to the determent of the others.

Huh, I never knew this, they even have a website

https://filmmakermode.com/

Good to know there seems to be an effort to keep some consistency.

That's cool info. Thanks!
