Realistically I do not expect this bug to be fixed. Because we don't
want to lower the default from 10bpc when the rest of us are trying to
enable 10bpc in more cases, and adding a GUI to make it configurable is
a multi-month effort because multiple projects would be involved there.
But if you want to get the ball rolling on a GUI then I suggest
requesting it at:

  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-control-center/-/issues

This bug *might* be fixed without a GUI if some kind of error check and
fallback can be automated in the modesetting code. For Xorg sessions
that's in the 'xorg-server' project and for Wayland sessions that's the
'mutter' project.

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/somerville/+bug/1886778

  It has some problem when user connect to external 4K monitor with refresh 
rate 60.
  The problem can be solved by lower the bpc, or lower the refresh rate.

  `xrandr --output DP-3 --set "max bpc" 8`

  Would like to open this bug to open discussion for enhancing user experience.
