You’ve missed the entire point. Sure, anyone can shoot raw. The Fujifilm value proposition is in not having to do post-processing of raw files. The finished good is right there in the jpeg, complete in all its film-like glory.

You missed my point. It's utterly trivial to do with a GIMP/LR/RawTherapee/Whatever preset and a $300 used camera from 10 years ago, it's a weak selling point for a prosumer camera costing thousands. If the X100VI also had a button that instantly uploaded your shot to Instagram and added an LLM-generated 2deep4u caption, well now they have something. The X100VI sells because it's a good camera, and a good-looking camera. Fuji's default color rendering is the best in the industry. The film presets are a convenient way to recycle dying IP.
