RAW adds flexibility in processing, snd is non destructive to the file.
So is JPG editing if you use something like Lightroom and export the results to a copy.

Not a print though but a comparison on the screen.
They have make a photo with JPG and RAW and you can switch between the two so you can see the differnce.

I shoot RAW exclusively, mainly because a lot of cameras ( but not all ) struggle with WB, so rather than try to set WB manually, just use Auto WB and process the WB in RAW later. This works for me, but YMMV
