I think this is fairly normal for anything creative. During this downtime your brain plays around and that is often when the ideas come out. I frequently get these sparks when you're in the shower or on the toilet, your brain is free

Nikon DSLRs can use either 12 or 14 bit RAW and there is quite a lot of discussions regarding that. The consensus seems to be that for a well exposed picture you can't tell any difference, it's only in some heavily processed edge
