Despite its high price and snazzy interface, does it provide any more
useful information then the tried-and-trusted (transistorised!) GDO?

That depends on whether or not you have the skills to utilize the

Most of the hams I have seen with the MFJ do not have the skills to really
use it and a simple swr meter would do just as well or beter for them.
