The bit-depth reduction is extremely simple effect and very easy and fast to implement. In threory it's just amplifying with -x db and then +x db so that accuracy is being lost in the process. I even tried emulating it with the DIST and VOL in MM, but no luck. The negative DIST creates so much headroom that no VOL setting can bring it back to audible signal :/ And with less DIST the amplification difference is not great enough so that there is no audiable change in the signal. Of course if alias-free BDR is needed, things get bit more complicated... but SRR isn't alias-free either.
