However ISO is measured (I believe it's shadow density at
something-or-other blah blah blah, I don't do testing of that kind),
neither of the 3200 films is a 'true' 3200 ISO (as Tri-X is a true 400
in certain developers, etc.). TMZ or Delta3200 at 3200 is underexposed
(and then push-processed).

This is all badly explained, I'm sure.
