That question is, I think, the crux of your problems. The answer is,
ideally, no. But in practical terms you never see a RAW file. You
see a version of it that has been rendered by the converter and takes
into account the camera settings and the converter settings. IOW the
settings do make a difference because they decide how the file is
displayed in the absence of any additional edits.
I once, some years back, had an editor that offered a de-mosaiced view
of a RAW file with no other settings applied, but it was fairly
pointless. It was just too raw to be useful.
