Downside, you will never see your nitrates at zero, which is no huge problem.
Upside, you will never have to worry about your tank crashing if you maintain it properly, you will have high alkalinity which is desired.
If you already have it in there I wouldn't go through the effort to chage it.
I actually prefer the look of CC......
