In the amplitude domain, you definitely need more bits for that type of processing, and many other types.

Digital distortion basically simulates high gain with soft clipping, which basically takes a narrow slice of the amplitude domain and magnifies it. The extra resolution has to be there for that not to turn into ugly sounding shit with artifacts.
