But once corrected for 0.005 mastering (10-bit video level 79), the darkness on the UHD is now letterbox black.

The movie still has lots of moments of darkness which don't extend this low and they look just as grey as they should do, like in the immediate shot after the above: the reverse on Cruise is plenty thin for black levels but then the same is true of the BD here also.

I never noticed any issues there on my E6 and still don't. Black levels are very good here and that particular scene looks good too. There is some light in the room so I don't see how you'd expect inky black background.
This run with default brightness of 50 on my E6.

PS. For me Lionsgate, Sony and Universal are the best. Obviously Disney too based on their one release. Paramount, Fox and Warner are very inconsistent. But they all have exceptions.
