With regards to monitoring in PAL-S...
Come to think of it, some monitors had PAL-S & PAL-D switch for convenient signal evaluation (clever).
North American NTSC Receivers did not utilize the addition bandwidth for the "I" phase only. 500kHz for equal band decoding was the norm.

It is interesting that the new 625 line UK standard had wider bandwidth to accommodate full double sideband R-Y and B-Y. And the 625 standard the video - audio carrier spacing was set for NTSC so that the aural carrier would be an integer multiple of the horizontal scan frequency to facilitate proper chroma-luma interleaving.
