Qualifier, Power Windows... do not play nice.
What works:
- Color Match
- Color Wheels
- Primaries
- RGB Mixer
- Curves
What is ignored - as one would expect:
- Sizing
- Data Burn-in
What does not work (screws the LUT):
- Qualifier
- Power Windows
- Blur
Well it makes perfect sense since LUTs are mathematical transforms of the color space.
We are used to so making many tweaks to the image at once that it blurs boundaries. Wouldn't it be nice if they all followed?
Anyway, make sure to disable all no-go adjustments in Resolve before exporting your LUT. And if your image looks funky... Well you know where to look.

Here is something else:
I also use Neat Video Noise Reduction Pro plug-in for FCPX, and when I do it must be above LUT Utility in the list of Effects.
If LUT utility is applied first, I can't select a noise profile in the Option window of Neat, the window is empty - all black or all white, no image.
I suppose it's good practice to always put LUT Utility at the top of the list of effects.
