I'm not sure I follow the 'else' arm here. On version 234/235 we'd have
16-bit level values. In the absence of any other precision information
wouldn't we assume that all the bits are used and that we have a full
16-bit precision? If the level is < 256 (or for that matter if we have
any value where level & 0xFF is non-zero) wouldn't that definitely mean
that there are 16-bits of precision since otherwise those low bits would
have to be 0's?

Technically these two are described as "brightness level" rather than
"backlight level" in the spec. Matching the spec's terminology might
make this slightly easier to follow when people look at it in the
future, but up to you.
