But since there are apparently *zero* raster file formats that can contain indexed CMYK images, it's impractical to do any image manipulation on these bitmaps. Extracting them as full CMYK TIFFs swells them to 100-315 mb.

There are hundreds of raster file formats in the world so it would be wrong to claim that *none* of them can do what you want.
