It is quite difficult to compare profiles this way particularly when you use the perceptive rendering mode. Profile programs allow you to introduce adjustments - intentionally - they call it differently - about one option focusses onto the rendering of colors close to the gamut limit, how an increasing color saturation is mapped to the output colors - I could adjust that between neutral to colorful, Datacolor has other similar sliders, I'm not familiar with ArgyllCMS. And there is the gray axis, you can have the choice that the gray axis runs from paper white to paper/ink black which would give lighter grays a similar color tone as the paper color itself, or the gray axis creates neutral grays regardless which type of paper you use except at the top and bottom where you only can have the paper white and ink black tones which both are not exactly neutral. And you typically can adjust a profile to the color temp of the viewing light - in most cases D50 but you can change that. And some software let you adjust the profile as well to the brightness of the viewing light, probably doing some Gamma adjustment. Gamutvision offers some method to check profiles for their integrity, but if you find a flaw it is not really clear how to go from there to correct that.
