Wire's comments are spot on.
The increase of effective bitdepth is a useful measure against
quantization artifacts like banding (mostly improves artificial imagery
devoid of noise, e.g. single-color gradients, and gives headroom to
loose some levels due to adjustments like 1D calibration curves). The
(in practice less relevant) increase in numbers of possible "colors"
(shades) is just a resulting side effect.
Cheers,
Florian.

Wire,
You wrote :
However an RGB / YUV display that processes 1 billion colors on its
interface may reasonably be
expected to produce 1 billion quantifiably different stimuli on its face
That's the whole point of the thread, isn't it?
I remain skeptical.
Stick with 16.7 million colors for a moment : can you point to any article
that ever documented this?
