But it does make a difference. The analogy would be in expanding the 
compress dynamic range of an image. You fill the range, but don't add 
any more data than was there before. Intermediate values may  be 
calculated by various algorithms, but they dcan't recreate the 
intermediate tones that would have been there with an exposure/medium 
with less contrast. No matter what the sensor can capture, once it has 
been mapped to sRGB, the inner detail of color variation can't be recreated.

Now you may see why I'm so crazy for the 10x Tamron 28-300.
