Neither pixellation nor digitization contributes to the camouflaging effect. The pixellated style, however, simplifies design and eases printing on fabric, compared to traditional patterns. While digital patterns are becoming widespread, critics maintain that the pixellated look is a question of fashion rather than function.

Simplified design and easier printing sounds like a very practical purpose.

At the cost of drip? Very much not worth.

Drip or drown, baby 😎

That paragraph seems to contradict itself. "ease of printing" is a functional concern, even if it doesn't affect the camo while in use.
