Don't confuse "conventional wisdom" with measurable, scientific fact. What you choose to do with the facts is up to you.
Conventional wisdom is that distortion from truncation is bad (I agree; Ethan apparently does not). However, scientific fact is that distortion from truncation exists. Whether you want to use dither to prevent it is up to you, and has been argued in other threads, but is off-topic in this one.
