Anyone know of a way to make ABL less aggressive on an OLED?

High Hz on OLED produce excellent strobeless motion blur reduction with fast GtG pixel response. It is easier to tell apart 60Hz vs 120Hz vs 240Hz on OLED than LCD, and more visible to mainstream. Includes WOLED and QD-OLED displays.

What I'd like manufacturers to do is always provide a setting that allows linear response (standard gamma curve) until a certain point.
+1 to that.

It's really annoying to see ABL create sudden and abrupt jumps in the brightness of things like subtitles while I'm reading them, even though the scene is rather dark (sub 200 nits.) It's really annoying. The option to disable ABL completely and cap the brightness to something like 280 nits (my monitor has that) is immensely useful in SDR and I use it, since 120 nits (productivity) to 150 nits (SDR games) is all I need in SDR. But in HDR content, it's just not good enough.
