My quick testing on my GX85 suggests that some of the settings that one would think are mostly for the JPG do get embedded in the RAW file. I applied the VIVID Photo Style and the difference in Lightroom between that and the one in Standard Style was just a difference in the Temp and Tint values. Different RAW file types may do it differently. It is an easy test, just apply some JPG "treatments" and see what changes between the images in your editor.
I've only ever messed with Canon Raw up to just recently and I have always used Canon's Digital Photo Professional (DPP) to process my Raw files and somewhere in all the reading I did about DPP said that although you can edit the Raw files they remain unchanged in the end after the editing and I convert to tiff as opposed to jpg and just have not delved into it technically enough to know what Canon does and if it's the same as what you're using or not. I have not spent any time fussing with all this stuff so I'm pretty ignorant about it. I'd rather be out shooting. I'm not sure why I'm even sitting here involved in this conversation. LOL
