DQI is a simple filter that simulates real quantization similar to jpeg compression and decompression.

benefits of 16:
little sharper and less artifact (artifacts appear when are highly quantized hi freq areas... compare SmoothDeblockLayer(quant=6,density=2 or 4))
So you are curing the symptoms
Maybe improving the previous step is better.

Yeah! As a script it's ugly. As a filter even 8x8 is easy and fast.
