Not true. You can represent ANY density by any number of bits. I can represent an entire density range with two bits: 00 - at or below dMin 10 or 01 - between dMin and dMax 10 - at or below dMax This is a completely valid encoding of density range. I have to run now, so I'll comment on the rest of your post later.
