What about your 101% whites? :-0

Since Resolve processes at 32-bit float, all above 1023 excursions are maintained and can be recovered in operations 'down the node tree'... the only exception is if you activate the Hard/Soft clips... then those over-100% excursions are actually clipped and can't be recovered downstream (unless you use one of the speciality Parallel / Layer nodes and reach before the Soft Clip and grade those excursions back in).

It's pretty tough to generate illegal Luma excursions in Resolve when you leave it in its default settings.
