In reality, as you suggested, maximum density depends on the surface
smoothness for processes that are capable of very high Dmax, and it
may not mean much as long as Dmax is above 1.8. You'd have to have
very bright viewing light to discern tonality in deep black area and
gallery illuminations are too dim to give high density such a
priority.
