What is the difference between editing images in 8-bit or 16-bit? While it should be obvious that 16-bit color is significantly better than 8-bit color. After all, 8-bit is only 16.7 million colors when comparing that to 16-bit which is 2.81 Trillion Colors. However, it just doesn't seem that way to the naked eye.

Visually, they both look the same, why use the higher resolution?
