Objectively speaking, what is good about HL? Other than the chat, what does HL have that an ingame lobby doesn't?

Agreed there used to be 1000+
Some will argue the numbers halved after the mod packs arrived, some will argue the mod kept the game alive.
Numbers tell us that the v4.11 revived the IL2 1946 online community, users are coming back to stock CooP's and Df servers.
HL has a section for CoD I use it to host from there's a few in there right now.
HL is a point of contact for other pilots to interact outside of the game before any-things launched, so mission and tactics can be discussed also general information exchange can take place about squad or individuals activity including recruitment.
So generally necessary if you want to be part of a community, if you just want to hop in a server and fly around shooting stuff and not be part of anything bigger that's up to you.
