Thanks for prod, oivavoi. I have primarily considered binaural personalisation from basic human and pro perspectives, so bear with me for maybe going off on a tangent in relation to this forum.
If two people listen in the same room, they are able to precisely discuss what they hear. That is not the case if they share a pair of headphones. Experienced audio engineers - like audiophiles - are highly active listeners, making full use of e.g. outer ears, efferent pathways to the inner ears, movements and any cross-modal amplification they can get. Here are two brief summaries about such issues,

Aural ID replaces a headphones' one-size-fits-all frequency response with a custom compensation, based on an approximation of the actual listener’s external ear, head and upper torso features. That is, however, only a first step towards a natural listening experience.
A processor then needs to calculate direct sound and room reflections, based on the >800 angles of arrival in your personal map (a SOFA file). Furthermore, movements need to be taken into account for low latency audio processing updates. Finally, cross-modal amplification (seeing the same environment you hear, balance, acceleration, body posture, smell, temperature etc.) affects our listening experience.
While the Smyth Realiser actually addresses many of those points in an integrated solution, Aural ID is currently more of as an academic tool for investigating various factors of binaural reproduction systematically. For easy home listening, a hedonistic approach like Harman’s target curves, is one way of qualifying a generally agreeable headphone listening experience.
