I have made some color experiments using C and SDL.
the values of single colors (r g b)  in range[0:0x0F](dez: 0:16)
is hard to see,
but in range [0x0F0:0x0FF] (dez: 240:255) a bit may be seen.

I think, some graphic programs may use 4 pixel
instead of one to get the 2 bits,
or spread more precisison of color over more pixels.
