   Did PIXY report on NSV17174?  Or did you manually deleted the data?

   I have heard in the past that PIXY somehow compensates saturation
and produces some reasonable values even for saturated objects.
(And PIXY can measure even non-linear conversions like GIF, JPEG, scanned
photographs and others).  This was the advantage of PIXY what I heard from
Yoshida-san, but may not apply to the present version.
