Sounds like some relic of the past. ;)

In general, RGB formats are not very useful in this hardware. One
wastes the precious bandwidth, but doesn't get more color resolution,
since the pipeline uses YUV 4:2:2 internally anyway. The typical usage
scenarios with video or JPEG encoding and preview are much better off
with the available YUV formats.
