It's an exaggerated example to demonstrate the concept of banding more clearly, not a technical breakdown.

Then it should be marked as such. It's highly misleading to anyone who doesn't know better. Again, you're demonstrating the difference between 5-bit and 8-bit color, not the difference between 8-bit and 10-bit color.

The purpose of the comment is to demonstrate banding. The only reason I marked it in bits is to show how banding can be reduced in video encodes by increasing the bit depth, not the specifics depths itself, it's not a technical write-up.
