While I agree that RAW capture will provide an improvement in the amount of data gathered from the sensor, and available for adjustments later on, if a user sets a custom white balance while taking a RAW picture, that setting will generally be accepted as a default rendering of the scene in most RAW processing software.

This is entirely besides the point because the issue stated here involves color interpretation based on a selected white point. Left to their own devices digital cameras will compensate for scene color on purpose, because 99% of the time people don't want color casts in their photos. The author is trying to blame the camera for people's ignorance of photography, which is just silliness.

Don't agree? Set your phone's white balance to daylight for a week and see how often you agree that the captured picture is what you actually wanted
