Supertoast,
I don't want to try a blind guess about the reason for the weird company policy, so all I can say is that the converters work.
Of course you can't control the gamut range unless you have Corel Photopaint v 7 - 11 or Photoshop, but the printing company can do right this - they **must** have the tools.
But rest assured: every TIFF I have converted to CMYK with RGB2CMYK showed not out of gamut colors when opened with a bitmap editor like PhotoPaint or Photoshop!
BTW, the colors appear to be a bit darker after the conversion, especially the blue and red blue or violet (the most critical ones for out of gamut ranges).
So have fun and roast 'em - FIESTA ! ! !
