Why XWin expose multiple visuals with same depth/colormap ?

Hello,

It seems that XWin exposes a lot of Visuals with same caracteristics (depth / colormap).

xdpyinfo displays 33 visuals of 2 type :
   TrueColor / 24 bits
   DirectColor / 24 bits

Is there a reason to expose 15 identical TrueColor visuals and 16 identical DirectColor visuals ?

Regards
