One major advantage of RAW, in addition to the previously mentioned

is that you can easily edit the RAW image, non-destructively.

You can edit anything non-destructively. Keep trying.

except that jpeg is already destructive.

you can edit non-destructively from that point on, but you can't undo
what was done to make the jpeg.

Interesting you said that - I stumbled upon a function of Elements that
sorta converted any JPG into a RAW file and allowed you to edit it the same
as any RAW image. Do you know what I mean?

Yes, but saving it in a raw file look-alike format can't restore the
information that was lost in the original transformation from raw to a
JPEG file.
