think of it as similar to how editing with a 16-bit/channel image
can give you more leeway to change an image even if the
destination is 8-bit
or how sound engineers use very good equipment (including
speakers) to do a mix, but then test their mix on cheap speakers
to hear how it will sound on the radio
the destination of the image matters, but when editing it's very
helpful to see as much of the image information as possible;
otherwise you might not see things that could be adjusted for
better output on the destination device; using a high quality
monitor with a color-managed workflow can also better simulate
the appearance of the final output (whether it's offset printing,
cheap monitor, TV, etc.)
