The _only_ way you can find out if there is any advantage _for_ _you_ is
to try it out for yourself. Find a machine, install FreeBSD on it, and
use / play with for some time (a couple of weeks should do it).

Note: if you are happy with whatever you have; don't change.
If it works, don't fix it.
If you want to learn something new, then you should take time to learn
it.

Just my 0.02 euros.
