Why are spritesheets typically in a 2D grid instead of

just linear? Seems linear sheets are just way easier to store and address:

* No additional tile size metadata required — sheet height IS tile size (at least for square tiles)! You don't need to store height/width separately.

* Addressing an individual sprite is just finding its index rather than counting column and row. (I suppose in theory you could do this with a 2D grid treated as a wrapped 1D array, but the loader has to do the conversion, which you just don't need if you don't have a 2D grid)
