The JRI 4096 color board was designed specifically to be compatible
with the STE and TT method of handling the extra colors, so the
enhanced color palette can be used on your ST, but only programs
that didn't try to take advantage of the STE hardware scrolling or
the TT extra graphic modes would work if you had only the JRI
board.
