The benefit of all those extra bits of color information in an image?
Filters and other computer processing routines run on the image have
more information available to them when processing a given pixel.
Software processing routines don't have the same visual or audio
processing limitations/requirements as people or printers or monitors,
so I don't see anything wrong with recording at bit rates much higher
than the end product will have.
You are free to do whatever you want. Just don't argue that there was a
difference in the that was a result of the higher SR (and not due to
broken converters etc.).
Fons' test was about a carefully mastered result, keep that in mind. Of
course you want to record with at least 24bit and process the data with
floats.
