I tend to agree, but I would prefer to discourage television manufacturers from doing any more "improving" than they are already doing. If you're sending a signal to a display with the signal so little compressed that 12 bpc would be an improvement for post processing, then you're probably sending the signal straight from a BlueRay player or desktop graphics card. In both of those cases, I'd rather my TV not do any post processing. (Brightness and contrast on TVs are analog operations and do change with changes in bit depth. Higher brightness = turn the lights up, not a pointwise linear map)
