Both those switches were removed between iPhone 12 and 13 models. Which is sad, because they’d go a long way to avoid the issues described in the article.

It seems that not all iPhones do have this setting available. Not sure if this is related with the availability of RAW images, which is only supported on iPhone 14 Pro.

Isn't it supported starting on iPhone 12 Pro?

I may have missed something and had the impression that this was a "new" feature for iPhone 14 Pro only. But as the linked support documents mention, it is available on iPhone 12 Pro and later Pro models since iOS 14.3.

I only have a regular iPhone 12.

13 pro shoots ProRAW as well.

This is probably a "Pro" feature because I can't find it on my iPhone 13.

I’m on a 14 Pro and cannot find these settings either.

I'm on 14 Pro also and I found the settings where they are supposed to be.

Are you running iOS 14.3 or greater?

Go to Settings, scroll to Camera, choose Format. There you can turn on Apple ProRAW.

ProRAW still does some post-processing. And doesn’t enable the scene and smart HDR settings mentioned above.
