I wonder if you are missing some of my point Don. The fact is that of course some processing has gone on. This is proven by the differences I mentioned in the two examples. However at their default setting there is always going to be a difference between progs. I suppose the same as there would be with an jpeg image out of different cameras. Part of my point was though that your example does not really show that one is better than the other, only that they are different. You cannot say from this test that NC is better than RSE.
I hope I'm not misunderstanding your comment 'if you retain the file in Raw format' This should always be retained, its your neg.
To do anything with your image you need to process the Raw file in the converter, however you decide how it looks finally. Even for web use though the image may look different especially if you use Adobe RGB. All browsers default to sRGB and this will show up on the web.
