And the problem is that is not exactly correct, the "idea" of RAW is just as
you said the implementation is another mater all to gather.

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.
