I agree that the jpg is what it is;
but I believe
when originally opened in photoshop
(or other imaging software)
it expands to reveal its maximum amount of information.
To then save it as a tiff or psd or DMG
does preserve whatever it did have to offer.

Working on a jpg and then saving as jpg
will further throw away information.
(or so I've been lead to believe).

So I do see some value, if choosing to shoot jpg,
(which I don't)
to then open the jpg and save as DMG
for further nondestructive editing
in LR or other software.
