If you shoot RAW, much more tonal data is preserved. Nothing is clipped.
Incorrectly exposed images can usually be brought up in PP. In fact you
do edit the unwanted images on the camera. If you shoot RAW, there is
only one image to edit, albeit on the computer. I agree that if you
discard the unwanted imaged in the camera there won't be a storage
problem. If you use a K1, the stored images are huge compared to a K5.

Everything you say is probably quite true but I find it is easy

PP cannot correct clipping - once data is clipped it is gone.
Bracketing everything is a solution but it must shorten the life of
the camera & triples the editing process, not to mention the storage
space needed.
Storage is cheap compared to glass. I do fine with 64 gb because I
very seldom shoot video. Bracketing does not require more editing -
after shooting I look at the BW and color histograms in the camera and
keep only the best (and not clipped) images.
I try to do as little as possible in post - I prefer to get the best
image in camera.
