You get a full desktop environment, which is preconfigured, has better connected parts, and includes GUIs for things like settings.

Ahhhh, okay. Definitely not what I'm after but I'm glad the middle ground exists for most people who aren't insane lmao.

I will argue on the better connected parts bit though. Most apps designed for TWMs are intentionally very generic, minimal, and simple, making them blend together very nicely. Especially if you theme them, which is very easy to do in most cases.

I think 'better connected' refers more to feature integration rather than looks. Stuff like KDE Connect.
