I'm not sure it should be categorized that way. Like, is infrared a perceptual effect or real? Both.

The human eye+brain can spot the boundaries on e.g. the classic undithered 16 bit color gradual variation. They are really there, and it's a perceptual artifact, both.

With 24 bit undithered color, the boundaries may still be there, but the human eye+brain isn't sensitive enough to be there.

Are there any cases where they are perceived but not really there? Not that comes to mind, but we do have a human perception expert here if that matters to you. Not sure you should care.
