I don't understand the appeal here. When Microsoft added some RAW support for Windows, I've never used it for anything except thumbnails in File Explorer.

If you're shooting RAW it's because you want to edit the photos in the kind of tool that will never be natively included in the OS. Otherwise shoot JPEG (or whatever format the iPhone shoots because universal standards are never good enough for Apple)

Select files in Finder, option + double click on them, and you have many photo files accessible in a single Preview window.

Do these tools support Nikon's "high-efficiency" compressed NEF files? I suspect that they're encumbered by patents.
