>All this video signal butchering does beg the question: Which is the better trade off? More color range per pixel, or more pixels with color channels? I would tend to say higher resolution is more worthwhile. I obviously don't have a way to test this directly, but my guess is that 8k at 180 fps and 2-bit, using spatial and temporal dithering, will look better than 4k at 60 fps and 12-bit, even though those two signals would contain the same amount of information. The reason is that the dithering allows the same color depth to be presented, but the discreteness is kept well beyond the boundaries of what your eye can pick up. Obviously there are plenty of technical reasons that this isn't exactly practical.
