I am not sure I've followed everything in this discussion, but on the whole
my RAW files usually look slightly or more than slightly underexposed. Doesn't
bother me because it means I have more to work with. Easier to lighten than
darken. Hard to correct blown highlights. (The exception is when I shoot backlit
subjects, but I am going to have to use exposure compensation more, which I
haven't been.)
Have people been saying this type of behavior, underexposed look, is sort of
deliberate?
Not directly answering your question, Marnie :-) (your question being,
"have people been saying ... ?) but you might visit this site

and check out the papers whose titles contain the word "Raw."
(I have them printed out and in a binder for frequent review.)
