I opt for __linear distortion__ of a non-linear function. What f.lux ought to do consists of shifting the whitepoint coordinates of the current color profile. Which has the point of only distorting colors in a way where my brain can adapt to it.
But that's not exactly what f.lux does - it already DOES try to account for color profiles, but it does so incorrectly.
