Sorry for answering this article twice. I just checked the FAQ more
thoroughly, and noted that 7*16 + 15 + 256 = 383, that is, 383 is a
dithered colour consisting of white and grey.
So if a conversion tool converted this to a mirrory, shiny surface, this
would probably be an inconsistent practice, as the same number can also
be used to obtain a white/grey dithered surface.
