@rr42 - Maybe that's only for "10bit in 16bit" ? and might not apply to "8bit in 10bit" ?

I'm just trying to think of what usage scenarios would you NOT want to scale the values for 8 to 10bit? I can't think of any

The docs (which obviously could be wrong at this point) say "convert 10-16 bit formats without re-scaling underlying pixel data." I think that means source 10 to 16 . The example given is ConvertBits(16, truerange=false)

But for the 10bit case, "10bit in 16bit code words" is still used by some people using dither tools workflows
