I think I can definitely make a Cree COB calculator that will take as an input any amperage, instead of dealing with the preset ones. It will take a good amount of time as it will be quite tedious to input all the points for all the different cree cobs and bins that are in the calculator.

I am not sure whether it would be worth it figuring out some crazy formula that will work with any amperage entered.
You could alternatively also feed the program known data that we know or that others have estimated, say, for the CXB3590s like shown here:
For me that would be MORE than sufficient.
Right now the calc doesn't have some important data, like (jn my case) with a 1750mA driver, I am especially interested in the 875mA values since I get 875mA when I connect 2x light fixtures in parallel. And 875mA are also the lowest setting I can dim the driver to. For such LEDs where we have data this could be done with EXTERNAL (CSV) files that have lines with amperage and lumens. The tool could then read in those data from those files. Then your tool wouldn't need to bother about calculating the values. And people could calculate them (or measure them) and then make those external files for each type of LED. You also wouldn't need to re-code the tool every time there are new LEDs, simply use such external files with the data? Just my $0.02
** If the values are not linear anyway (which I assume), there won't be a "one-fits all" formula anyway
