The in-kernel autodetection in md is purely legacy support as far as I

What other "things like" were you thinking of.
Oh, I suppose that's true. Well, another thing is your new mods to
support on the fly reshaping, which dm could do from user space. Then
of course, there's multipath and snapshots and other lvm things which
you need dm for, so why use both when one will do? That's my take on it.
