I guess I don't understand much about lossless encoding.

I'm not retarded, faggot.
You can't compress a bit to less than a bit, that's fucking retarded, you can't have 0.5 of a byte what the fuck is this shit.
These people claim to be giving 'higher' quality for less size:
say we have a 320MB 10 bit release
and a 500MB 8 bit release
There's a 180MB difference between them, and 0.64% of the 10 but release is composed of half bits.
Now we've already been though this half bits DON'T EXIST! That's 0.65 OF THE ANIME THAT DOESN'T EXIST!
Not only does it not exist. all of those half bits have to be removed from the video while it's playing.
Where do you think they go?
On your hard drive that's where, and because they can't exist, they can't be moved or overwritten. Noticed your HDD decreasing in size recently?
High 10 fucking p.
Enjoy your 'superior' quality faggots.

But you're not telling me why a 10MB MP3 file encoded to FLAC isn't 10MB.
