Go into the curves and change the end point of the curves.  In the latest Aurora profile I used 93 as the end point.  That appeared to be the "edge of the plateau."  In one ICC that used the curve it initially looked like it was slightly posterized, but when it dried fully it was OK.  With Gray Gamma 2.2 95% is very close to 100%.
