Using name-spaces or address pools for domain controllers? (things to make replacing DC's easier)

DFS is very simple, did you mean DFS-R?
I mean I get why a SMB wouldn't need it... single file server with a few shares, not a huge benefit to use DFS.
But the benefits of it are nice when it fits the environment.

DFS-R is needed for Replication from Server 2012 R2 and up.

Yeah but many people only implement DFS for the replication. You don't need to replicate to use DFS. DFS by itself is great for the benefits if it's worth using in the first place i mean.

@dave247 you might have a look at this thread. I think it could be useful for you.
