Hello. I work on the Adobe Camera Raw and Lightroom teams as a computer scientist / engineer. I also work on the DNG SDK, DNG Profile Editor, DNG processing model, DNG spec, etc.
The DNG Converter copies over ALL the tags from the original file (CR2, NEF, ARW, etc.) into the DNG, even the ones it does not understand. This includes private MakerNote information for which Adobe generally has very little information. By copying it over directly, bit for bit, we do not throw out proprietary data.
