Never did film so I can't comment on it but from hearing from mates who did it's a whole different skill set.
With digital there are many advantages shooting in RAWS. For a start the full dynamic range of the camera is used and it is also much easier to calibrate, stack and clean your data. Guiding will enable you to take long subs and increase your SNR. Unless you have a very good mount that can track for a long period of time, guiding is the quick answer.

Well that may be how you feel but in the end you take pictures for yourself and get some satisfaction out of it. What others say makes you progress in the hobby by learning from other imagers so you should listen to constructive criticism if you want to improve. As far as what they "think" who cares, that's not relevant.
