The consumer source media can't even accomodate the range of colors that existing displays can show. Isn't this about as useful as Deep Color? Still waiting for that in media, trillions can come later, we're not talking budget deficits here. :)

Yes, it's completely meaningless.
Any color space greater than the space in the movies themselves has to be done by degrading the color rendition.
To get the best picture, you have to turn this feature off; you cannot meet the ITU-R BT.709 calibration specification with it on, and the only way to display accurate color and a true greyscale is if it's calibrated to BT.709.
Ignore this specification when shopping. It's there to satisfy the marketing department's need for "big words on the box" to attract the Costco buyers.
Not a hit on Sharp ... every manufacturer does it. But features that actually work are more important than features that are there to get people to pull the trigger.
Also, there is not a trillion possible colors in nature. A few billion is the limit.
A HDTV monitor can display more colors than exist in nature because it can create color mixtures that rely on excessive saturation to exist.
However, I have a hard time reconciling that with my need to view movies that are renditions of something that actually exists on Earth. The additional colors can only be used if your display has completely unnatural looking color settings.
