Understood. If you do any significant editing, then when you convert the image (AdobeRGB to sRGB before or after your editing) will make a difference. That is yet another debate or the one I thought we were having.

The original image was shot in Adobe RGB. I then opened the sRGB file directly into Paint Shop Pro, which unfortunately does not support working in different profiles, so the image opens as sRGB no matter what you do.
The adobe conversion was opened in Nikon Capture, which supports the color space. I then did a save as tiff which automatically saved it as sRGB. I think I set my options to do it that way.
The results are as you saw. I have full sized if you really want to see them. |
Not necessary. I have a feeling we're talking in circles. We may not be having a conversation at all!
I thought your two images represented a comparison of an sRGB image with an AdobeRGB-converted-to-sRGB image. That's clearly not the case and it explains the color/red shifts. |

At what point does it become beneficial? |
The point is that you are capturing a wider gamut. You get more colors, which can produce a better looking image. When you save that same image without converting it to sRGB it looks bland. Just like the original poster complained about. But when you convert it, and save with the new color space, most of the colors are kept and converted into sRGB colors.
You tell me, which one looks better?

I like --> adobe RGB 1998 converted to sRGB
