And the digital signals that are recorded by my camera need to be backwards compatible with the hundreds of millions of analogue TVs. This forms almost the entirety of the set of 720x480 or 720x576 videos. I don't make the standards and frankly whether you dislike them is your problem but they exist and need to work correctly. Instead you wish to break things based off an artificial test pattern and your own beliefs. Wikipedia seems to be wrong in a number of areas.
