Does DisplayCAL set its own colour profile/ignore them when calibrating?

[chivs688]

Trying to calibrate my external monitor connected to my MacBook Pro, and there’s no option to have no colour profile active. I’m assuming the default one it automatically created and applied at the top of the list with my monitors name (Dell D2716DG in my case) is the default “no profile applied” profile, but am unsure.

I have seen someone mention that DisplayCAL ignores this anyway and sets its own linear profile when calibrating, making this a non issue. Does anyone know if this is true?

Thanks.
