EDIT: As @ChrisBrejon points out below, these were mistakenly done with an older version of the Candidates OCIO config, so the current Candidate A does not in fact have these issues shown below.
Regarding those skews (blue to magenta for example) here’s an image from @ChrisBrejon viewed in ACES 1.2 where you can this pretty clearly:
Here’s that image with Candidate A. Not much change as far as those colors go.
Here’s Candidate B. The skews are gone.
Same with candidate C.
So of the candidates, only B & C address these color skews. If these were a “must have” (personally, I feel similar to @ChrisBrejon that they are) then that disqualifies A for me.
Just for funsies, here’s ACES 1.2 with the Gamut Compression applied from ACES 1.3. Not perfect, but way better on those blues not going so magenta.
