Agree, games designed to work on SDR devices will at best enjoy a smoother interpolation, using also in the output some of those extra bits currently used just internally, but not a true higher range. Anyhow, if the rumour is true, it's most likely a novelty aimed to technophiles, to keep their interest alive on the product as it ages and the next gen is still far away. 4k and HDR support on non-gaming contents will probably be more effective, movies don't require as much GPU power as games, and once producers invest on HDR 4k cameras they'll use them, so the contents will come more easily, while game devs must rewrite some code and get new HDR texture libraries to get full benefits of HDR, and they also need scalable engines able to generate SDR output too for gamers not having new devices yet, unless they are fine to give up a large part of their potential sales.
