If they have validated this it will be their gotcha's that creep out. Personally I would decode to some well defined gamut/curve combination like AlexaWG/LogC but if they just "turn the knobs" it makes little difference. Most modern log curves will be able to store all the relevant data originally in the braw, just use 12bit prores variants 4444 or 4444hq.
As for raw capabilities, raw does not have any special capabilites regarding color. Only real difference is the debayering which affects sharpness and aliasing etc, but braw does not have this capability exposed anyway. If you don't blow up half the data on decode by clamping the data or truncating precision with low bit depth it makes very little difference whether original is raw, braw or developed result.
