People who invest tens of thousands of dollars in high-quality cameras and lenses are served by a high-quality RAW converter that can convert to high-bit TIFF files.

Darktable is such a converter.

There is no compelling reason why we would focus our resources on .jpg conversion even if it were technically feasible.

 I thought that the  appeal of Darktable could be expanded to include people like this by having a facility whereby raw images are batch processed  to create a set of jpg images in a similar way to    the way jpg images are created by in-camera processing,  maybe in the light table module; there would still be the option to work on a raw image as normal.

I'm a bit overworked myself at the moment and struggle with RSI as you may deduce from the voice recognition  I use .  I did do C and C++ in the 90s though it would take a while to get up to speed; maybe one day
