Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES3

Why would I use "Adobe LiveCycle Reader Extensions ES3" when I have Acrobat Pro and can save a file as Reader enabled? Is there some other benefit?

Hi,

Reader Extenstions can add a couple of more rights like import/export of data and adding attachments.

That's true but wouldn't I get those extensions by opening my LiveCycle Designer Form in Acrobat and saving as "Reader Enabled"? I am trying to understand the benefit of using "Reader Extensions" in Adobe LiveCyle Reader Extension ES3 versus Adobe Acrobat Pro? If I don't need to learn another application and don't benefit from using ALRE ES3 than I'd like to not use it. Thanks.
