16 bit math, edited ... still capable of exceeding 8 bit outputs, after math operations.
You guys are missing the point that where you start ... gives you more latitude ... en route to where you end (staying north of 8-10 bit, etc.).
14 bit has less "wiggle room" than 16 bit. To Dan's point "edge cases" for some. Yet, appreciated for others.
If you're not going to consider the 16 bit difference of value to your files, then why even bother with MF ... more $$$, more weight, more bulk, slower lenses, etc. Might as well drop the premise of the GFX 100RF being of any value over the X100VI for consideration ... oh, wait 100MP for cropping down to a 60mp or 40mp files (same as FF or APS-C, options).

This kinda reminds me of how I used to tell folks that I preferred to not have an AA filter and everyone told me I was wrong, and it didn't make a difference to shoot without an AA filter ... for all kinds of reasons they'd come up with.
