One perk that someone told me about is that you can use your domain to get around not having a static IP (because the DNS will compensate).

If I were to get a Cloudflare domain name then what would be some other pros and cons?

I've recently set up hard coded local entries for router.domain and nas.domain but not got around to adding printer.domain yet. In theory it is quite possible to define static DHCP entries for a bunch of different containers with bridged network interfaces then add entries for individual services like filemanager.domain and mediastreamer.domain and downloader.domain and cctv.domain etc.
