But: that's exactly how it works..!

When you build a profile, it's always from the measurement set that you've
created. The sliders just "flavor" the profile when you're building it.
Once you measure the 729 patches, you don't have to measure them again.

(The measurements you create with the spectro are NOT the profile. The profile
what you build from the measurements. You can build as many profiles as you
like from the same set of measurements, as different variations, depending
on how you have the sliders set; just name the profiles differently so you
can tell them apart from each other).
