Yep. Seems like this person is getting things mixed up a bit...
As a long-time user of the TIFF format for somewhat unrelated purposes,
I feel most inclined to comment on this note:
Tiffs don't have any of the post-processing advantages of RAW
Which is obviously untrue, since TIFF (unlike JPEG) won't usually
compress data by throwing actual image data away, and also has the
capability of storing 12 bits-per-channel (well, actually, it will have
to be be 0-padded 16-bit, but...)
