im not saying people don’t know about RAW and lens profiles I’m saying many are getting a nasty surprise that the profiles are not out yet and may not be for a long time. I feel like if your lens requires a lens profile to be normally usable, that needs to at least be in the fine print in the specs or on the box. Also, no Canon lenses needed anywhere near this kind of correction before mirrorless. So it wasn’t as big of a deal if you had no profile. People who have been at this a long time may not even think to check.

but keep sticking up for Canon and Adobe. I’m sure they need your support!

No, I guess they just need the nagging. I’m sure you are taking it up with Adobe so they quickly provide the required updates on their industry standard software so their users don’t have surprises. And also provide camera matching profiles for canon cameras made in last few years which is only a big deal if you want good colours out of the box without any surprises. But somehow, it seems you want Canon to put an asterisk for Adobe? Keep sticking it to them, I’m sure that will fix the software

All the while, users are shooting RAW being oblivious to what it takes and are surprised why the colours are bad and their brand new lenses have distortion and vignetting. Because they just saw a new lens in a store and bought it. The same place where they bought their camera, which came set to shoot JPG but they somehow figured out they should change it to RAW instead
