My mirrorless camera shoots in RAW. When someone asks me if a certain photo was “edited”, I honestly don’t know what to answer. The files went through a RAW development suite that applied a bewildering amount of maths to transform them into a sRGB image. Some of the maths had sliders attached to it and I have moved some of the sliders, but their default positions were just what the software thought was appropriate. The camera isn’t even set to produce a JPEG + RAW combo, so there is literally no reference.
