If the type of blitting does not change that, then what did this mean?

That means if you have a 5 bitplane display, the maximum width a display can be is 256 pixels. Using a shallower palette depth helps with that by reducing the number of bitplanes to skip using the modulo. Also, ECS has a 15-bit modulo instead of 10-bit so in can handle much wider displays with this configuration.

Either i miss something trivial, or the terminology i use differ from the conventional...
