If this is the case I guess I should always shoot raw with jpg to cover my butt right ?

I cant answer about the hotspots in AV mode as I always shoot in manual. It is what I learned on back in the days of film and manual only cameras. But the part about shooting in RAW format is a big yes... You should definately do that
