Apple ProRaw Query using lightroom.

I’ve just got the 14 pro and been trying out ProRaw, and so far I’m a bit disappointed. I use lightroom on my desktop to edit photos and the initial ProRaw has far too much processing for my taste (especially HDR), however if I move the slider to reduce the ProRaw effect the photos are then massively underexposed and I’m having to boost it by 1-2 stops. If I change the profile from ProRaw to Adobe Standard (which I assume gives me more of a real raw image as it has no processing) then I only have to boost exposure by 0.1 or 0.2 sometimes, although at other times is can be 1-2 stops.

Is this what you’d expect, and if so why does turning down the effect of ProRaw make the photos so underexposed? My initial thought was because it’s HDR and by decreasing the ProRaw effect you’re losing the higher exposed images, but then why does it appear much better when using the Adobe profile?

Any help appreciated.
