The point is, if your camera compresses the image for you it's going to throw out information that you want to keep.
Left half is the jpg straight out of camera. Right half is the corresponding RAW file after just applying whatever preset in Lightroom.
Left is what film simulation forces you to deal with. All that detail lost in the sky is lost forever. I really don't know how much simpler to put it.
