> What's the purpose of RAW+jpg though? Seems rather redundant?

You get to keep out of camera jpg files. Some people might like how their camera processes jpg files and might also want the raw file for a scenario when a more complex editing is needed.

Interesting, based on this and other replies, it sounds like Photos App should have an option to select what to import? i.e. RAW or jpg, but not both.

It sounds like Photos App can have issues trying to import both at the same time?

As I said in my blog post, it imports both and combines them in the UI. Also as I said in my blog post, I switched to shooting only in raw, and it still exhibited file corruption.

I commend you for your patience with this comment section.
