I already explained the resolution issue:

"The raw resolution issue is curious. If, under Win 10, I check the picture file properties, it shows dimensions of roughly 640x480, but the same picture in LR shows full sensor (12mp) dimensions. The jpg images are so good, though, that I'm doubting the need to mess with raw. I don't, for example, see the over-sharpening that I did with my Pixel 3."

I suspect the reason I don't find much value in raw is because computational processing as applied to jpg is so good. Some jpg are combinations of multiple shots, for example, but you don't have access to each shot in raw.

I've messed with raw on my pixel 3 long ago and found myself much as you have described it and could never get them to look as good as the jpegs the camera produced. When I got the pixel 6 pro I tried it again and it is still the same for me.
