I don't think HDR is too dark when viewed without ambient light in the room.

I noticed that calibrating to 2.2/2.4 (relative) gamma on LCD is much more similar in appearance to 2.2/2.4 (absolute) gamma (1886) on CRT/Plasma/OLED, vs using absolute gamma (1886) on LCD which makes everything greyish.
So, the near crush dark tones when using relative gamma on LCD is probably Correct. It's just more crush like in home environments where the room light is on.
The moral of the story is, it's suppose to look like that, just turn the lights off.
