Because JPEG is post processed by your camera... like if you take a
picture in JPEG, not in RAW

Problem : JPEG is 8 bits color depth image. RAW image use full color
depth from your camera sensor, as 12-16 bits. It's really better to
post process without to lose image quality...

Trying to reproduce all camera processing is a big puzzle...
