Ohh well. My bad. If I understand correctly, the GameCube uses 6-bits of precision for the alpha channel (which should be the EFB channel and the three RGB color channels) while Dolphin actually used 8-bits for each channel. So disabling the option (which is the new option right?) allows Dolphin to actually use 6-bits of precision for each channel as expected. Using 8-bits instead should decrease the color banding for increased quality. If I am correctly so far. So with the option enabled Dolphin uses 24-bit RGB colors (which would be 8-bit per RGB color channel) and the remaining 8-bit for the alpha channel. I believe I am somehow messing up my general understanding of the color use...
