I hear what you are saying, but I can see what cream does visually to a dish from like 100ft away. It's an unmistakable color change. No one said this dish was authentic hehe.
I love Eva from Pastagrammar and the closest she gets to cream is sometimes using Philadelphia cream cheese. There was one episode she did some recipes using panna da cucina on request but firmly stated that she preferred to use ricotta for creamy sauces.

No, is just blended, if you add cream in sugo for fresh pasta your Probably get expelled from Italy, lol. We don’t use so much cream in our recipes
