As an aside, numerous albums that recorded during the 80's and early 90's and mixed in digital were 16 bit, and were remastered in 24 bit, U2's Achtung Baby comes to mind, so does Emmylou Harris's Wrecking Ball. Most recently, Springsteen's 80s/90s albums including The River.
A consumer's DAC will indeed see 24 bits, but 8 of those bits are strictly padding.
MQA also pads the bits for extra headroom I guess.
