If anything the RGB version might have a bit more color in it, which could 
look more speckly in a color sense, but it would look smoother in a coverage 
sense...

I believe the areas Tyler's scan was focussing on was highlights, where not 
having extra extra light grays would force EITHER the RGB or the AWB modes to 
use LLK for most of the coverage. That would be where I would expect the 
dithering to be most visible... microscopically. As I say, viewing distance is a 
whole different matter. I haven't had much complaint about the highlights for 
some time now( except in terms of hue control), its the shadow detail I've been 
most interested in!
