Digital BW, The Print

I am curious.  I do not have a wetroom background.  How would one describe the difference 
in texture between a traditional fibre print and, say, Epson Premium Luster.  Ignore ink for 
the moment - just the comparison of two sheets of blank white paper.  On a scale of 1 to 10 
are we at 2 (nowhere near the goal) or at, say, an 8 (close but no cigar)?  Of course this is 
very subjective and perhaps I should go to a Lab and ask for a blank fibre print so that I can 
form my own opinion but I am wondering whether we collectively/generally think we are 
close or miles away.

(as you can tell I am very impressed with the K3 inks and it seems we are just missing the 
texture of the underlying substrate)
