I'm not sure how you see that. Every source on the web and in print,
and everyone else here, knows that WB is not set at the time of
exposure, but is fully adjustable afterwards. This is where this
whole discussion started.

I can go into the raw file converter and change it after the fact,
by altering the ISO setting? I dont think so, not and get a good print.
It's important to separate what happens before the sensor records
the image and after the sensor records the image. The amount of
light hitting the sensor is controlled before the image is taken,
by ISO, aperture, and shutter speed. Everything else, including
white balance and contrast/sharpness/hue settings happen
afterwards. Anything that is changed afterwards is completely
controllable regardless of the settings in the camera (for a RAW
image), which is why you are wrong about the WB. However, there is
generally more exposure latitude with a RAW image than a camera-produced jpg.
