It is now suggested that editing can happen in 8bit, but export in 32bit at the end -- which is what matters.
That doesn't make much sense to me. Wouldn't it be better to edit in 32 bit and then downsample the final result to 8 bit for smaller file sizes?
I don't work in video, but when retouching photos I tend to work in 16 bit and then downsample to 8 bit JPEGs when I export.
