That's true, but `C-j' is sometimes more complicated:

---
It is bound to C-j.

(electric-newline-and-maybe-indent)

Insert a newline.
If ‘electric-indent-mode’ is enabled, that’s that, but if it
is *disabled* then additionally indent according to major mode.

But, yes, `C-j' is often the command to use when `RET' does too much.
