The newer .X version of Resolve added APPLY PRETONE CURVE and APPLY SOFT CLIP to the debayer panel,as mentioned here -

It seems the debayering process has been reworked behind the scenes, and so will use the new way for debayering. So I am wondering, should APPLY PRETONE CURVE be turned off, since that settings is for the old way of debayering, and only there for backwards compatibility?
Also, should APPLY SOFT CLIP be left on or off, if we are doing the process of transcoding ml cdngs to cinelog-c masters?
On another matter, on the tutorials for transcoding cdng to cinelog-c masters, they mention to keep this process simple with only doing color balancing and exposure. So this means not to worry about getting the full dynamic range for luminance in this initial transcoding, that we should only to deal with the exposure of the luminance and not its range?
