I'd say that DL's targeted audience is professional admins, which know what they 
want and why. DL has several major features  - stability, security enhancements 
and distribution specific like "run-from-ram", configuration is separated from 
the system image, simplicity of customization of course (I use DL as a Cisco ASA 
replacement actually, much more flexible and powerful replacement). Nobody knows 
what exactly do you need, besides you of course. DL may be suitable for your 
needs, may be not. Do not rely on our proofs, get your own. It's a tool which 
can help in your job, may harm

If you cannot independently "dissect" a linux distribution, most probably DL is 
not for you. LFS-based distributions are not oriented for newbies, unfortunately.

Your right to choose what to use and what not to use.

Good luck,
