Flashing color bit! They halfened the color quantity due to that "bloody bit" given for the (tele)text mode to able to distinguish the normal and flashing characters.
Like in our case, why we have only 121 and not 256 colors. (8 luminance levels instead of the 16 possible). And finally almost noone used that option. BTW I would be happy with 8 luminance too if the black would have been more that 1, and would be 32 colors instead of the 16 (that would be almost Amgia 500 palette, eh! what a great possibility fo the microcontroller based emulation, haha, just dreaming)
