Photo edits after Denoise converts it to .DNG - should I edit the DNG or go back to RAW?

I know DNG files are basically RAW files, but I'm kind of obsessed with making all my editis in the original RAW.

 

So when Denoise converts to DNG and I want to make more adjustments, is there any reason I shouldn't just make the adjustments on the DNG? Or is it better to go back to the RAW and start over? 

Thanks!

It would be completely useless to start over, because the denoised DNG is created from the unedited raw file. So if you edit the raw file and then create a new denoised DNG, then you'll get the exact same DNG as you got the first time. Edits will be copied over to the new DNG, so the end result is also exactly the same as when you make those edits directly on the denoised DNG.

Denoise outputs a demosaiced RGB linear DNG. It's no longer a "true" raw file.

The denoised file can be recreated at any time, but the opposite is not possible. This is a one way street, you cannot go back. The denoised file is a derivative file. Always keep the original to go back to.

When you run Denoise, all adjustments are temporarily suspended, and the process is run on the original raw file. Then the adjustments are re-applied (but may look slightly different).

Armed with that knowledge, you should make your own decision about workflow. I don't think there is a definitive answer. Personally, I use it very sparingly. I just don't think it's needed very often.
