The only time in-camera settings are applied to RAW files is when you are using a RAW converter that can read and understand the metadata. LR, ACR, and other apps apply their own defaults to the data. As far as they are concerned, that data does not exist.
Even things like the WB presets are different. You may have noticed that (at least in LR) that the WB shows 'as shot', not whatever the camera WB was set to.
