It's 2016, and I do think we can safely convert 1 bpp AVI to 8 bpp with
default parameters without shocking too many people (give or take that
the output AVI will lack a palette, something that needs fixing). It is
already what happens with 1 bpp QuickTime (raw and RLE) and BMP. In the
name of consistence, it's rather silly to just use monow for the single
case of 1 bpp AVI without a palette. And it's not logical to use it for
AVI at all, as I have already mentioned.
