What would you consider the same standard? For LCDs 2.2/Native is a standard I believe. Therefore if Native white point is different on two monitors then your colors are different. They are accurately described in the generated profiles that are used by colormanagement-aware software but they visually look different on monitors. Then there's black and white luminances that are also different. And with a colorimeter you can measure it, print it out, compare. You see the whole thing. The idea of matching (AFAIK) is to make two monitors colors look as close as possible to a colorimeter. Calibration, on the other hand, tries to match the target values and then creates an accurate description (ICC profile). In the case of "native" wp there's no target value to speak of.
