In theory, yes. In practice, I had this very issue of my monitor being too dim
until I set the max brightness to the max. average instead of the max. peak
brightness...

I see two reasons for why this could be happening:
1. your monitor takes issue with the HDR metadata we send it. If you use
gamescope on a tty, you might be able to play with different HDR metdata to
figure this one out. We should probably allow configuring the HDR metadata we
send to the screen for testing such cases as well.
2. the Intel kernel driver is still broken when it comes to handling the
Colorspace property, and your monitor is one of the many that don't actually
enable HDR unless that works properly. If your screen has an OSD where it shows
whether or not HDR is enabled, please check that, and if you have another
device with an AMD or NVidia GPU, you could check with that as well.

For testing 2, if you're willing to compile KWin, you could also try changing
BT2020_RGB in

to BT2020_YCC
