i just ask you a different question who stops you from creating a native 10 bit source with 1023 in it?

Umm, okay, but my questions weren't rhetorical. Nothing stops you from creating a native 8 bit source with 255 in it, but that is - according to broadcast standards - an "illegal" value.

a bad way to go back to 8 bit is by removing the last too bits truncation. another one would be dithering.

Dithering still needs a convention as to what values, integer of fractional, correspond between the bit depths.
