I noticed this while updating Macports. It now features high bit depth
and such...

something photoshop had in 1992.

it still does not have adjustment layers, something photoshop had in
1996, making it still useless to any serious editing.

Photoshop was eight bits per channel until CS, IIRC...

CS was 32 vs 64 bits for addressing of memory, which was required
for having more total RAM for larger images.

Having 16 bit channels dates from November 1992 (version 2.5):
