Any kind of overload clipping such as eye blinks create a large number of frequency artifacts, and if the signal is AC coupled there is a significant overload recovery time. The data is bad enough without introducing errors that you can control with a little more effort.

restating the question: if there's say 5uv of high frequency noise
riding on
a 100uv EEG signal then what is gained with 12-16 bit data sampling ??
